Jaggery, a natural sweetener, can leave stubborn stains on outdoor tables if not cleaned promptly. To prevent these stains, start by applying a protective sealant or wax to your table’s surface. This creates a barrier that makes it harder for jaggery to penetrate the material. If you’re using the table for serving jaggery-based dishes, place a tablecloth or silicone mat underneath to catch spills.

For immediate cleanup, wipe any jaggery spills with a damp cloth and mild soap before they dry. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers, as they can damage the table’s finish. For dried stains, mix equal parts vinegar and water, apply it to the stain, and let it sit for 10 minutes before gently scrubbing with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly afterward.

For wooden tables, consider sanding and refinishing the stained area if the mark persists. Regular maintenance, like reapplying sealant every few months, will help keep your outdoor table stain-free and in great condition. By taking these simple steps, you can enjoy your outdoor dining without worrying about jaggery stains.
