A common fix I had to do was removing a blush from finish caused by water. Often a glass, flower pot, etc. would leave a white mark. This was probably one of the most severe I ever did. It was summer time and the barrister's bookcase was in a moving van, wrapped in a moving blanket and there was a leak in the van. The owner did not want to have to have it refinished (watched too much Antiques Road Show, apparently). I started off with my usual, a white ring remover cloth. It was working, but it was going slow because of the extent of the damage. I had guessed because of the age, it was a shellac finish. So I dampened a cloth in denatured alcohol (the solvent for shellac). Light "touch and go" padding of the surface almost immediately restored the finish.
