How does the Landscape Square table handle exposure to hard water deposits?

The Landscape Square table is engineered to withstand outdoor elements, including exposure to hard water. Its primary defense lies in the high-quality, weather-resistant powder coating applied to its aluminum frame. This coating creates a non-porous, smooth surface that prevents mineral-rich water from easily penetrating and bonding to the material. When hard water droplets evaporate, they are more likely to leave superficial deposits on the surface rather than causing permanent staining.

For routine maintenance, light deposits can be effortlessly addressed. A simple solution of warm water mixed with a mild, non-abrasive dish soap is typically sufficient. Using a soft cloth or sponge, gently wipe the affected areas. For more stubborn, chalky white mineral buildup, a diluted mixture of white vinegar and water (one part vinegar to three parts water) can be applied. It is crucial to rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water after using any cleaning solution to remove all residue. Always avoid harsh abrasives, steel wool, or acidic cleaners not designed for powder-coated finishes, as these can damage the protective coating.

The table's design also aids in prevention. A slight tilt on the tabletop, if present, encourages water runoff, minimizing pooling where deposits can form. Regular cleaning, such as wiping the surface dry after rain or sprinkler exposure, is the most effective strategy to prevent hard water deposits from accumulating in the first place. This proactive care ensures the Landscape Square table maintains its aesthetic appeal and structural integrity for years, even in areas with notoriously hard water.
