Yeah, that - so, the bench with the reloaders on it - is the one that you mentioned in this thread? Painted steel over particle?
How's that holding up? It looks really great in the pix.

It's holding up great. My first attempt was 3/4" laminated particle board, but the presses started to crack it and pull through it. That material is what now makes up the lower shelf.
I also moved the problematic presses mostly to "strong" (elevated) mounts and used steel plate to reinforce under the large caliber single-stage press. The finish will occasionally flake off if I scratch it or it comes in contact with harsh chemicals, but it's also easy to sweep powder or brass shavings off of. I've touched it up a few times.
