Rust stains on a copper outdoor table can be unsightly, but they don’t have to be permanent. With a few simple household ingredients, you can restore your table’s shine. Here’s how:

1. Vinegar and Salt Solution: Mix equal parts white vinegar and salt to form a paste. Gently scrub the rusted areas with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry.

2. Lemon and Baking Soda: Cut a lemon in half, dip it in baking soda, and rub it over the stains. The acidity of the lemon combined with the abrasive baking soda works wonders.

3. Commercial Copper Cleaners: If DIY methods aren’t enough, use a specialized copper cleaner. Follow the product instructions carefully for best results.

4. Prevent Future Rust: Apply a protective wax or sealant after cleaning to keep your copper table rust-free longer.

Regular maintenance will help preserve your copper table’s beauty for years to come!
