Soy milk stains on a plastic outdoor table can be stubborn, but with the right approach, they can be easily removed. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you clean the stains effectively:

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

2. Prepare a Cleaning Solution: Mix warm water with a few drops of dish soap or a tablespoon of baking soda to create a gentle cleaning solution.

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

4. Rinse Thoroughly: Use clean water to rinse off the soapy residue. Wipe the table dry with a clean towel to prevent water spots.

5. Use Vinegar for Persistent Stains: If the stain remains, apply a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub and rinse.

6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Abrasive cleaners or bleach can damage the plastic surface, so stick to mild solutions.

For prevention, wipe spills immediately and consider using a tablecloth or placemats to protect the surface. With these tips, your plastic outdoor table will stay stain-free and look like new!
