Cleaning and maintaining your deck was never this
easy. Simply use a mild detergent and water and hose
it off. Normal outdoor living spills don't even get the
chance to become stains. They just wipe clean.
Your deck should be washed occasionally to eliminate
the various airborne pollutants that can settle and play
host to mold or mildew. Use a mild, non-abrasive household
detergent or commercial deck wash to remove ordinary
stains. Simply apply with a soft brush or towel and rinse
clean.
Sensibuilt™ Decking contains no cellulosic fibers that
can support the growth of mold or mildew. So if surface
mold or mildew ever appears on your Sensibuilt Decking,
it will only be on the surface and can be easily removed
using a solution of one part chlorine bleach in five
parts water. Remember to never mix bleach with any other
cleaner.
Outdoor living is active living. And that means expect
unexpected spills as a result of cooking, eating, drinking,
yard maintenance, trim painting and home repair activities.
Almost anything you can spill on your unique Sensibuilt
Decking can be easily removed, restoring its long lasting
beauty.
Begin removing stains by wiping up excess spills and
spot cleaning with a non-abrasive household cleaner.
Stubborn stains may require a stronger cleaner. The tough
Sensibuilt surface will allow the use of commercially
available solvent based cleaners made for urethane flooring
such as New Beginning® Floor Cleaner
and Stripper or multi-purpose cleaners such as Valspar® Goof-Off.
Never use abrasive cleaners of any kind on Sensibuilt
Decking.
Welcome mats with a rubber or latex backing may contain
chemical plasticizers that can stain your deck. The stains
can be removed, but to avoid them, the use of vinyl backed
mats or colorfast woven rugs are recommended.
Use a broom for snow removal and rock salt for ice removal – do
not shovel or chop on the surface of any decking. Salt
residue can be removed with water and a mild soap solution. |
