Tried a few of the online solutions (mayo, salt) but they don't work.

Any tips?
Alternatively, which of the commercial products work well?

Thanks in advance.

Damp tea towel and warm iron, sometimes works.

i am with project on this one you dont need the towel to be wet in my experience you just need to protect the table from the iron and away you go . i have used a thin tea towel a hot iron and apply a fir bit of pressure to the iron. i reckon it will only work on a table with a fairly thick varnish or laquer or what ever the protection is.

My mum used to pour something on and light it, then blow it our after 1 second. Not sure what she used. White spirit, nail varnish remover, meths? Sounds radical but might be worth a google. Seems to work for her.

Iron and teatowel worked a treat for me a few months back. I did worry I was gonna make it a lot worse, but the gamble paid off.
