Help refinishing a table (AGAIN)

So my wife somehow "forgot" that what damaged our dining table previously was ironing on it....She did it again. "Sorry I forgot" she says....AARGH!

About three years ago the same thing happened and I spent a day sanding it down with multiple grades of paper and just oiling the top with orange smelling table wax.

It has held up fine with only mild swirls as a result of the sanding.

She says she will do it herself if I just tell her how (guess who will end up doing the work though)

I will at least borrow a hand sander to make the process easier.

The ironing leaves a whitish streaking that seems to penetrate into the table.

Any other solutions besides what I outlined?

Thanks
