Hi I have a nice bloomingdales dark wood dining room table that is 20
yrs old and was given a lacquer coat a few yrs ago...since then, the
table has been very sensitive and recently a hot cardboard pizza box
placed on it left a large WHITE SPOT on the table that has not gone
away...I am curious what I can do specifically to resolve this
issue....any tips would be appreciated !

Thanks,

Jasper

If have a Behlens' or Mohawk finishing products dealer nearby, they
sell "ring removal kits". These are designed for furniture repair
folks and include products to draw out the white (moisture) and
correct any damage to the surface lacquer. These kits aren't exactly
plug and play, buy they do take most of the experimentation out of the
equation.

If the damage is very deep, the entire table top may need to be
refinished.
