Title: I need help and suggestions...
Post by: ramsfan on September 25, 2013, 07:38:04 AM
Can anyone offer me any help or suggestions. What's the best way to get a heavy grease stain out of a Weber thermoset plastic table top? Anybody have any secret home remedies or tricks? I tried everything. Thanks.

Have you tried a baking soda scrub?

I have the same issue, I tried mineral spirits.  It helped a bit but didn't take it out completely.  Let me know if you find a solutuion.

i used greased lightning, sprayed it on and let it really soak in for a long time before scrubbing with a brush and wiping with paper towel.

it took 3 or 4 times, but eventually it looked brand new.

Cream cleanser and a light scrubbing pad, I think the grit in the cream cleanser really helped to lift the stain
I have a blue platinum that had rust and grease stains and it came up spotless

Spray Nine works great on removing grease. May need multiple applications ... and some scrubbing / scraping.

I restored quite a few gassers this summer and dealt with my share of dirty plastic tables.  I haven't tried most of the suggestions in this thread, but I'll put my technique up against any of em.

You need a tub/container big enough so you can submerge the plastic table.  Fill tub/container with dawn soapy water (hot is best) and let it soak overnight.  Following day take a scrubbie of some sorts and that gunk will come right off.  Don't be shy with the Dawn either.  It's cheap stuff and works amazingly well.
