Question
I just  bought a mahogany dinning table and a couple of drops of the scented oil got on my table now I have discolored little circles is there anything I can do thank you..

Answer
I have heard of this happening before. Unfortunately I think that the oil does permanent damage. If your table is solid, it can be easily sanded and refinished. If the table is a veneer, they can usually just replace that section of veneer. You will need to seek a professional woodcraft/repairman to have them look at it. I wouldn't try anything before he/she looks at it, because you may only make it worse.
