Removing A Cigarette Burn Mark

[ssjones]

IMO it’s time for a complete refurbish, someone who works with stain on a daily basis, has a ton of experience AND is actually good at it could make it presentable. It would be easier,faster and look a lot better to strip and refinish the whole thing.

All correct, and as others have chimed in. Those marks run pretty deep and to truly get it out completely, you almost always have to change the shape of the bowl Perhaps you could compromise with getting most of it out, then using a dark stain to disguise the disfigurement.

Well a good clean and wax, then I will live with it.

Yeah, if you like the shape just deal with it. As long as it isn't a burnout waiting to happen, there is no reason to worry about the mark.

Or you could find a small gold or silver piece to glue over the spot and say it's a special edition Dunhill! :mrgreen:

The inside of the bowl looks fine. As far as I can tell it is only cosmetic.
