How To Clean Plastic Folding Tables

In our busy life, the plastic folding table has become a useful partner for our office, dinner and activities. Based on the long-term popularity of plastic folding tables in the rental industry, knowing how to stack, store and clean them is key information for any rental company on either side. While they may not face the same types of issues encountered by wooden folding tables due to their weight and natural materials, plastic folding tables do have their own specific set of cleaning requirements.

Fortunately, if you can give your table a little more protection when cleaning and caring for plastic folding tables, the right approach can extend their service life and keep their appearance fresh. Here are some suggestions:

Our plastic tabletop is made of polyethylene, which resists stains from most liquids or natural elements such as dirt and grass. However, it is important not to let anything sit on the surface for too long, as the material itself is porous. If you notice your glass turning over at dinner, don’t wait. Grab some paper towels and you should be able to wipe it off without a trace without having to pull out a bunch of cleaning supplies at the event.

Rinse thoroughly: At the end of an outdoor party, the last thing you probably want to do is wash the table. However, it only takes a few minutes after each wash, and you can extend the rinse time appropriately. If you have a garden hose, feel free to give the plastic folding table a healthy rinse to remove major food particles or residues before drying and breaking it down. Be sure to dry with a soft towel to avoid scratching the polyethylene surface.

Mild cleaner:Maybe If you have a great team of efficient people at your disposal, you might want to consider taking the post-event breakdown cleaning routine a bit further. Use a spray bottle filled with either Simple Green, diluted OxyClean, or even a white vinegar solution to spray on each table and follow it with a soft towel wipe down. These strong, but safe cleaning products are much more powerful than water and won’t leave a soapy residue. The few minutes you spend after each event will save you lots of money in the long run.

Soft brush or sponge: For stubborn stains, you can use a soft brush or wet sponge to gently wipe. Do not use a stiff brush to avoid scratching the plastic surface.

Regular cleaning: Regular cleaning is key. Don’t wait for dirt to build up before you start cleaning. By keeping the desktop clean, it is easier to deal with surface stains.

Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause plastic desktops to turn yellow. Try to keep your desk in the shade or use a special plastic protectant to protect it from UV rays.

Waterproof and moisture-proof: If the folding table is often used outdoors, ensure that it is stored in a moisture-proof and ventilated place when not in use to prevent moisture corrosion in the open air.

Use a tablecloth or mat: Use a tablecloth or mat on your desktop to not only reduce surface wear, but also reduce the likelihood of stains and scratches.
                                                                           

Sometimes, even with regular maintenance, you have to battle stubborn desk stains.
