Spilling wine on your plastic outdoor table can leave unsightly stains, but don’t worry—there are easy ways to clean it up. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your table’s appearance:
1. Blot Immediately: Use a clean cloth or paper towel to soak up as much wine as possible. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.
2. Mix a Cleaning Solution: Combine equal parts water and white vinegar or baking soda with water to form a paste. Both are effective for breaking down wine stains.
3. Apply the Solution: Gently scrub the stained area with a soft sponge or cloth dipped in the solution. For tougher stains, let it sit for 5-10 minutes before scrubbing.
4. Rinse Thoroughly: Wipe the area with clean water to remove any residue. Dry with a towel to prevent water spots.
5. Prevent Future Stains: Consider using a tablecloth or placemats to protect your plastic table from spills.
For stubborn stains, a mild dish soap solution or specialized plastic cleaner can also work wonders. Regular maintenance will keep your outdoor furniture looking fresh and stain-free!
