New Life for an Old Table

A few years ago, I ran into a Duncan Phyfe dining room table in an antique store and fell in love with it. It had a few heat marks on the table top, but the man I bought it from thought I could get them off. I tried several remedies that required a LOT of elbow grease, but after nothing worked I chalked the little white marks up to character. So yesterday when Jackson went crazy with the crayons and colored half of my dining room table I got out a trusty "Magic Eraser." As I cleaned the marks off with ease, I wondered what would happen if I scrubbed the water marks. It took a bit of effort, but they rubbed off. I also took off about 50 years of polish, and need to apply some new, but I was just so tickled that it worked.
