Getting water stains out of unfinished wood - Scott Jashinski - 06-28-2017

Long story but I am trying to restore an old B.L. Marble Chair company chair for my wife. It has been outside and has water stains on the bare wood. A quick google search has several methods for trying to remove the stains (salt paste, baking soda paste, etc.). They are not very dark but I cannot sand them out so I am really just trying to make them lighter. Not sure, but I think the wood is Maple (ironic I know) or could be beech so I will probably dye not stain.

Anyone had success or failure with any of the stain removal methods?
