    Sounds like water rings.
    When I get them in restoration work I gently wave a heat gun over them and they disappear. Gotta be careful though as to much heat...and your friendship could disappear also!

    And you get to repolish the table.

    But if done gently with quick passes should be OK.

    Cheers

    Default white rings

    long and slow but works.few drops of olive oil on the rings and using your finger rub over the rings until they disappear. GL billym

    The best way to stop those rings re-appearing is to buy some square glasses.
