Get your deck in tip-top shape

With a little elbow grease and some new Woodoc Deck Sealer or Deck Dressing, your deck will be back in showcase condition.

 

1. Cover plants and the surrounding area to protect and prevent stains and spatter.

2. All decking, railings and stairs must be sanded down to bare wood. Sand with the grain of the wood. Alternatively a paint stripper could be used. Remember to neutralise the paint stripper after use, according to instructions. Any black areas (a sign of fungal growth) remaining after sanding should be treated with Woodoc Wood Reviver.

3. Wipe the surface clean to remove any dust. You are now ready to apply Woodoc Wood Reviver if necessary. Carefully read the instructions on the plastic bucket for mixing directions and how the product should be used correctly.

4. Scrub the surface thoroughly with Woodoc Wood Reviver with the brush included in the Wood Reviver kit or use a household scrubbing brush. For safety, wear the protective gloves included. Once the blackened surface has been removed, wash the wood down with a hose pipe.

5. Allow the wood to dry out completely, preferably 2-3 days in warm sunny weather, before sealing/treating with Woodoc Deck Sealer or Deck Dressing. Smooth down the wood again before sealing as the Woodoc Wood Reviver can leave the surface feeling rough.

6. Apply Woodoc Deck Sealer/Deck Dressing with a good quality paint brush. Make sure that you apply product to the sides of the deck planks as well.

7. All Woodoc products should be applied to clean, dry and bare wood.
