Have you thought of facing your exisiting table with a thin sheet of UHMV? Say a .125 of an inch or so?
You'd get the non stick benefits without much compromise in work envelope (depending on how you fasten it).

That is another problem is how to fasten the table to the metal base. I am thinking about using some sort of adhesive. I am not sure. For support though I am thinking about putting sheet metal underneath the plastic table. Then under the sheet metal maybe square tubing in an X-brace format.
