The stain/paint on the top of mine has chipped due to water damage. Has anyone found a way to repair defects to this piece?

Mine had no damage. Sorry, I would suggest you go to Ace or a local hardware store and asked for something to repair it. I know Ace Hardware has a can of stuff that restores finish. Hope it helps.

Yes, I did that exact repair.You must do this in stages, as it will take more than one application, if a hole is involved.This formula drys to a hard finish, build it up by stages.

Same think happened to me. The problem is the top is not affixed and for some reason the stuff you need is missing. Contact customer service and they will send you a new . It seems this a ongoing problem.

You could probably do it but parts are fragile and you stand a good chance doing damage. A good paint store may have a type of paint that would adhere to existing finish. I'd try that first

I have spot cleaned it and the stain came right out. For the price, I would try to wash it in a front load washer on the gentle cycle.

I got an answer from Sahara Pacheco at : Sahara Pacheco <Sahara@alpan.com>She asked me the info on the defective pieces and she said she will send replacements. Not sure she will do it because it's been awhile since she replied to my email, but it's worth trying.

My best suggestion is to contact the company directly at www.algreenproducts.comIf they can't help, perhaps you could fabricate a replacement using something like a cut-down paint stirring stick.

Yes, I have had mine painted for 2 years and no chipping has occurred. I receive constant comments from guests saying they cant believe its painted. They really thought I had granite counter tops.

I'm not an expert but I think you could paint it if you sanded it first. I don't think you can stain it

I do not know what kind of paint is on it. Maybe you could talk with the manufacturer...Sorry

I would contact the seller or manufacturer for replacement parts or unit if you still have all the necessary information. These items should not chip easily.

Maybe you've got a defective one. I think you can return that? my only question is " how come the one I've got, the paint are fading and cracking"?... I hope the Lenmar & Amazon can fixed these!... thanks...

What kind of paint? Be sure to adjust the tip depth - you may have to loosen it. I had the same problem on the first couple of tries before I found the right height.

You could take a damp cloth and rub on it, but we have noticed that the paint chips off relatively easily. I wouldn't recommend using an abrasive material.

Defective may be too strong a word. I was one of the drillers but it was an easy fix and I could not be happier with the table. I stained the top medium brown and I painted the legs with blue milk paint. It looks great.
