How does the Landscape Square table handle exposure to oil-based stains or spills?

The Landscape Square table, crafted from high-density sealed concrete, is engineered to handle the realities of outdoor living, including exposure to oil-based substances like cooking grease or sunscreen. Its primary defense is a professional-grade, penetrating sealant applied during manufacturing. This sealant creates an impermeable barrier within the concrete's micro-pores, significantly slowing the absorption of oily liquids and providing crucial time for cleanup.

For fresh spills, immediate action is key. First, gently blot—do not rub—the excess oil with a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towel. Rubbing can spread the stain. Next, create a simple cleaning paste using a mild dish soap (designed to cut grease) and warm water. Apply the paste, let it sit for 5-10 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft-bristled brush. Rinse thoroughly with water. For more stubborn residues, a specialized concrete cleaner or a poultice made from baking soda and water can draw the oil from the surface.

The table's matte, textured finish also works to its advantage, helping to disguise any minor, persistent discoloration that might occur, integrating it into the table's natural, weathered character. For long-term resilience, reapplying a concrete sealant every 1-2 years is recommended. This maintenance renews the protective barrier, ensuring the Landscape Square table continues to offer robust stain resistance alongside its signature durability and minimalist aesthetic, making it a practical centerpiece for any patio or garden.
