Wow. You needed to refinish your table because of that pizza? There must have been some sort of chemical or something in the pizza in order to do that sort of damage to your table. Did you request some sort of compensation from the store?

Both the heat and grease ruined part of the finish. I didn’t contact the store as I kind of looked at it as my fault.
