Use a standard hairdryer and plug it in. Set it to medium heat — not too hot!
3. Apply Gentle Heat
Hold the dryer about 2 inches away from the water ring. Move it back and forth slowly across the area.
Important: Keep the dryer moving to avoid overheating one spot.
4. Watch the Ring Fade
Within a couple of minutes, you’ll start to see the ring fade. Keep applying heat until it disappears completely — usually within 3 minutes.
5. Polish and Protect
Once the area cools down, use a wood polish to restore shine and add a layer of protection to the surface.
This trick is quick, effective, and requires no special tools — just something you already have at home. Next time you spot a water ring, skip the stress and reach for the hairdryer.
