Heritage Professional Wood Ring & Stain Remover Kit
£29.99
Few things are as depressing as a black ring burned into the top of a favourite table. One wet glass, a plant pot, a bottle left overnight and suddenly there is a dark halo right where you sit, eat and talk. Polish will not touch it, sanding feels brutal and the idea of sending the whole piece away is equally painful. The Heritage Professional Wood Ring & Stain Remover Kit is made for that exact sickening moment.
Precise Rescue For Black Rings
Instead of attacking the entire surface, this kit lets you treat only the damaged mark. The stain lifting solution is applied with a small syringe directly onto the ring, guided gently with a detail brush, then safely neutralised when the darkness has gone. The surrounding finish stays intact, the repair stays local and the table keeps its original character.
For Tables That Matter
Ideal for oak, walnut and other quality woods on dining tables, coffee tables, bureaus and heirlooms, this is a calm, controlled way to undo one bad evening without rewriting the history of the piece. Clear steps, minimal fuss, an invisible repair that lets the furniture take centre stage again.
Black water rings and deep iron stains are some of the most upsetting marks that can appear on fine furniture. They penetrate below the surface, resist sanding and cannot be removed with standard cleaners or polishes. The Heritage Professional Wood Ring and Stain Remover Kit is a precise chemical rescue system that reverses the reaction between iron and natural wood tannins, restoring clarity and beauty to damaged timber without stripping the entire finish.
This kit is fully compliant with the UK Poisons Act 1972 (amended 2023) and uses a controlled strength oxalic acid solution below the regulated 10 percent threshold. It is safe for public sale when used responsibly and provides the same professional grade corrective power trusted by restorers, conservators and furniture repair specialists.

How it works
-
Apply the neutralising solution
Use the syringe to drip the oxalic acid directly onto the black ring. Spread gently with the detail brush. -
Allow the reaction to work
The acid breaks down the iron tannate stain. Dark marks begin to fade over minutes to hours depending on severity. -
Neutralise the acid
Mix the sodium bicarbonate with warm water. Apply over the treated area to neutralise all remaining acid. -
Rinse and dry
Wipe clean with a damp cloth then allow the wood to dry fully. -
Refinish
Once dry, lightly sand the affected area if needed and reapply shellac, varnish or oil to match the existing finish.
