Oat milk stains on a metal outdoor table can be stubborn, but with the right approach, they can be removed easily. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your table’s shine:

1. Blot the Stain Immediately: Use a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much oat milk as possible before it dries. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain.

2. Prepare a Gentle Cleaning Solution: Mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap or white vinegar. Both are effective yet gentle on metal surfaces.

3. Scrub Gently: Dip a soft sponge or microfiber cloth into the solution and gently scrub the stained area. For tougher stains, let the solution sit for 5-10 minutes before scrubbing.

4. Rinse Thoroughly: Use a damp cloth to wipe away any soapy residue, then dry the table with a clean towel to prevent water spots.

5. For Persistent Stains: Sprinkle baking soda over the stain, add a bit of water to form a paste, and let it sit for 15 minutes before scrubbing and rinsing.

6. Prevent Future Stains: Apply a protective wax or sealant designed for metal outdoor furniture to make future cleanups easier.

By following these simple steps, your metal outdoor table will stay stain-free and look as good as new!
