Keeping your outdoor table stain-free, especially from matcha spills, requires a mix of quick action and preventive measures. Here’s how to protect your furniture:
1. Act Fast: Wipe up matcha spills immediately with a damp cloth to prevent the stain from setting. Avoid rubbing, as it can spread the stain.
2. Use Coasters or Mats: Place coasters or silicone mats under matcha cups to create a barrier between the drink and the table surface.
3. Apply a Protective Sealant: For wooden or porous tables, use a waterproof sealant to create a stain-resistant layer. Reapply annually for best results.
4. Choose Stain-Resistant Materials: Opt for outdoor tables made of metal, glass, or treated wood, which are less prone to staining.
5. Regular Cleaning: Clean your table weekly with mild soap and water to remove residue and prevent buildup.
By following these steps, you can enjoy your matcha outdoors without worrying about unsightly stains!
