not sure if this is maintenance, per se, but i'm going to post it anyway!

water spots on wood: when i get ugly white spots on my wood coffee tables, etc. from spills or lack of coaster use, i put a bit of mayonnaise on the white spot. let it sit for a bit, then wipe it off with a paper towel or cloth. it should take the spot out. you may have to reapply or let it sit longer for more stubborn spots.

(note: it also works when you accidentally spill nail polish remover on the wood, use a wet sponge to clean it, and then get unsightly wood damage. not that i have personal experience with that or anything.)
