How do you get fingernail polish remover out of a coffee table?

Answer

There is one method you can use before you have to sand down and restain your coffee table. Take a medium hot iron and take a double square of paper towel. Put the paper towel on top of the stain and hold the iron on top of the paper towel to the count of 10 or 12 AND NO MORE. Wait a minute, then keep doing it until you hopefully get all of the nail polish off. This is going to leave a dull spot so you can use oil-based polish for wood to bring the spot up. If this isn't working then sorry, you will have to sand down and restain your table.

TIP: Women are notorious for doing their nails in bed or on top of a coffee table and I've done it myself. I use an old place mat and use that as my work area. If doing your toe nails use an old towel in bed or on the floor by the coffee table.
