Cleaning Water Rings from Wood Furniture

I have to share this crazy idea that Norwex posted on Facebook today!  They say that toothpaste, when used with a Norwex enviro cloth, will remove water rings from wood furniture!  To try this out, get your Norwex cloth damp, use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste, and rub it into the stain.  Wipe any of the excess off, and repeat.  Man, I thought  I was clever getting stains out of purses!  When it comes to great info like this, I am happy to be shown up!  

I am going to try this over the weekend to a table I have.  The water ring has been there for years, and I usually cover the the table with a cloth.  I will take a before and after and share the results.

I tried this out this morning on a table that has gone through some serious use in the last few decades, and I am really impressed with the results!  The table means a lot to me because it belonged to my grandmother, and we used to sit for hours and play gin rummy!

Here are some pictures of the results I got.  The left hand side has a visible stain and the right side is after I cleaned it.

  3. New Advance technology leather sofa Cleaning was in a bad condition. It needed cleaning and repairing too. When I called new Children's fabric chairs cleaning Melbourne, I explained them everything and I was amazed to know that they visited the same day of booking for my leather sofa. And now, it appears as it newly came.They deals in all upholstery like Dining tables Melbourne, Chairs Melbourne , Drapes Melbourne.

  4. I am too lazy to work and investing my energy in cleaning the stuff is not me! And, so I usually hire cleaning companies to do the tasks for me. Lately I have been very disappointed with the kind of services my old cleaning company provided.
    I got in touch with Fabric Kitchen chair cleaning Brisbane on Google and was initially sceptical about their services. But, man they amazed me. I hired them for cleaning my upholstery and they did the job pretty well! They disinfected and sanitized my upholstery like new and also provided me with additional tips of taking care of upholstery.
    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

  5. My kid accidentally spilled a soft drink on the couch, and I had no idea what to do next. I randomly called Lift chair cleaning Adelaide by extracting contact from Google, and I must say, they are worth every penny spent!
    I got a call from them immediately and they sent a team of professionals to my home for an inspection. They not only expelled the soft drink out from my couch but also made sure that the couch is dry so that it doesn’t attract any mold and mildew. I would recommend Fresh Upholstery Cleaning to everyone.

  6. Shine Upholstery Cleaning are just ultimate saviors! I had a badly soiled upholstery. Basically, we went on a foreign tour for a month, and when we returned, my upholstery, couch – everything was coated with a thick layer of dust.
    My husband suggested Children's fabric chairs cleaning Canberra as his friends have hired them a few times. And yes, they actually worked wonders. They not only helped in cleaning the upholstery, but also offered us a quick discount as a part of their promotional scheme.
    I am glad and satisfied with the services I received. Without a doubt, they are the best!

  7. Prompt services. Quick in communication. Best prices, and very courteous and friendly stuff. Probably one of the best upholstery cleaning companies. I am hiring Stain on bed head cleaning Sydney back and again for 2 years now for a range of jobs and greatly satisfied with their work. Kudos to the team, and their manager who is particularly responsible and accountable. Try Fresh Upholstery Cleaning services once!
