Ink on Light Oak
Dear Aunt Daisy, I trust the Listener who suggested olive oil and salt as a remedy for iodine stains on furniture, will not mind when . I suggest that ink also may be removed from light oak with just that. After absorbing about a tablespoon of salt into approximately the same amount of oil, I rub it hard into the furniture, until the stain disappears. Years ago, in England, I had the care > of some beautiful furniture, and have > removed all sorts of stains, including hot — and cold water stains, even from mahogany. With good wishes.
