That is one reason I chose the finish I did. If someone leaves a wet glass, there will be a white ring, but it is temporary, and dries right up within minutes. Also, before I chose this finish, I "tested" the dining table I made from the same wood almost 10 years ago by leaving a wet glass and it has cured so that it doesn't even leave the temporary white ring. I am very happy with the wood and finish so far:-)Anita Diazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10745164844001794566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-86840151648374849.post-50579273706267700422013-11-05T11:15:48.711-08:002013-11-05T11:15:48.711-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.The K.
