Grey Deck Cleaner

Recommended Uses

GREY DECK CLEANER is ideal for use as a deck wash for cleaning grey or blackened decks and all other exterior woodwork. It can be used to remove iron staining provided that any iron particles have been sanded out. It is suitable for use on all timber species such as Ironbark, Merbau, Spotted Gum, Western Red Cedar and Treated Pine to name a few. Timber which has been previously coated with pure Linseed Oil or some other similar finish may require vigorous scrubbing with Oxalic Acid to clean off the discolouration caused by mould.

Directions For Use

1. Dissolve 500 g of GREY DECK CLEANER in 5 litres of water (i.e. a 10% solution).
2. Using a stiff brush, clean weathered timber using the mixed solution.
3. Wash the timber down thoroughly afterwards with water or a high-pressure cleaner. This process may have to be repeated for timber that has weathered for some time.
4. Ensure timber being cleaned is allowed sufficient time to dry before the application of oils or paints.
