I think standing water has made my garden table go black. What can I do to clean it?

You could try the garden furniture cleaners and give it a good scrub but I doubt it will work. I am just doing my bench, sanding the whole thing back to clean wood and oiling.0

i would suggest fully sang it down and starting again. the start of the summer mine looked awfull and i almost got rid - however a bit of tlc and it looks as good as new0

ours did this as well. we pressure washed it!
it came up sparkling and new and only needed a few little bits of sanding, where the pressure had loosened some tiny splinters.
we then whacked a fair amount of teak oil on it (more than normal - about 4 coats painted on with a brush) and its absolutely fine0 -
i do the same pressure washing my table is great really satisfying. The teak oil is so tediuos though but it is the only way.0

I find olive oil works just as well"A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi
