    Lifetime tables from Sam's/Costco

    Hey guys, I'm sure most everyone has either seen or used these white very durable tables.

    I have some that get A lot of use. And no matter how well I clean them, there are still stains that get get engrained into the table, making them difficult to remove. I CAN get them out but it takes a green scrubbing pad and bleach to do so.

    A pain in the ARSE, is what it is.

    Does anyone know if there is a good Wax or protectant to put on these tables to keep heavy maintenance to a minimum.

    I haven't got a response from Lifetime yet.

    Thank all, and have a great day!

    I have one of those tables also. I only use it for my detailing table and have never tried to really clean it. My guess is for mine it would be easier to get the cleanish parts dirty so you would never know the real color.

    Lol! That makes sense.

    The main reason I'm asking though is not really for myself. It's for my work, in their cafeteria, they have 20 of these tables. And I'm in charge of cleaning them at the end of each day. So allowing them to just be stained looking isn't really an option. Just hoping there is some protectant out there.

    I would say a sprayed on coating. Maybe Carpro Dlux through an air gun. Don't use for the table kid's birthday party after coating.

    Edited:
    In a cafeteria I would stay away from automotive detail products. Don't think Carpro and the NSF collaborate on food safe coatings

    Ever try cleaning with a melamine sponge, aka Magic eraser?

    I have two lifetime tables too. They do stain easily. I just clean them as best I can and fold em up. Out of sight out of mind.

    I gave up trying to keep mine crystal clean. I lay down towels when i put wheels on them to work on. But when doing mats and such, i leave them bare. I usually do a good wipe down with degreaser in between. And when I use it for displays, a tablecloth covers it all up.
