Bamboo outdoor tables are a stylish and eco-friendly choice for patios and gardens, but they can develop stubborn base stains over time. Here’s how to restore your table’s natural beauty:

1. Mild Soap and Water: Mix warm water with a few drops of dish soap. Gently scrub the stained area with a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse with clean water. Avoid soaking the bamboo to prevent warping.

2. Baking Soda Paste: For tougher stains, make a paste of baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain, let it sit for 10 minutes, then scrub lightly and wipe clean.

3. Vinegar Solution: Combine equal parts white vinegar and water. Dip a cloth into the solution, wring it out, and wipe the stain. Vinegar’s acidity helps break down grime without damaging bamboo.

4. Lemon Juice and Salt: Sprinkle salt on the stain, then squeeze fresh lemon juice over it. Scrub gently with a soft brush, then rinse. This works well for organic stains like mildew.

5. Sanding (Last Resort): If stains persist, lightly sand the area with fine-grit sandpaper. Finish by applying bamboo oil to protect the surface.

Prevention Tip: Use coasters or placemats to avoid future stains, and apply a bamboo sealant annually for added protection.

With these methods, your bamboo table will stay stain-free and look great for years!
