There are many deck wash and exterior cleaning products available at retail. It is important to make sure you use a cleaner specifically
intended for your application. After selecting a product, be certain to read, understand and follow all instructions supplied by the man-
ufacturer. Some cleaning products and inhibitors may be more effective than others, depending on the enviornmental conditions your
deck is subjected to. Additionally, it is always a good idea to test the cleaner in a small, inconspicuous area prior to applying it the the
entire deck (www.deckorators.com).
Mold Inhibitors
As with deck washes, there are several mold-inhibitor products available from paint stores, hardware stores, online outlets and home
centers to prevent long-term mold/mildew growth. For any product selected, be certain to read, understand and follow all instructions
provided by the manufacturer. Depending upon the enviornmental factors affecting your deck, some preventative cleaning producrs may
be more effective than others. It may be necessary to try more than one product. For ongoing preventive maintenance, follow the manu-
facturer’s recommendation.
Note: Deckorators is not suitable for structural use. It should not be used for primary load-bearing members
such as posts, joists, beams or stringers. The same common-sense precautions should be taken when handling Deckorators as with
wood or other building materials. Dust masks and eye protection devices are recommended to avoid possible irritation from sawdust
chips. Gloves will help protect hands. Hands should be washed after construction work.
