    Hi Lorrie,

    It depends. If they are wood, I'd use Murphy's Oil Soap to clean then add some Old English oil. I'd put the oil on heavily, let it soak in, then polish it with a soft cloth. If the tables are laminate, my favorite clean is a 50/50 mix of water and vinegar with a few drops of Dawn. I use a paste of baking soda and water for any stains by applying it an letting it sit a while before using the vinegar solution to completely remove it. I hope that helps. Wishing you the best.
