Cleaning an ornate metal outdoor table requires special care to preserve its intricate details and finish. Start by removing loose dirt and debris with a soft-bristle brush or microfiber cloth. Mix a mild soap solution (like dish soap) with warm water, and gently scrub the surface using a sponge or soft brush, avoiding abrasive materials that could scratch the metal. For stubborn stains or tarnish, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied sparingly. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately to prevent water spots or rust. For added protection, apply a metal polish or wax designed for outdoor use. Regular maintenance will keep your ornate metal table looking stunning for years.
