4 steps to restore a deck. #diy
What happens here
After the stripper has had time to work, prepare the wood brightener. Mix the 'Expert Clean & Bright' product (the white granular powder shown) with water in a separate bucket. Apply this solution to the deck using the pump sprayer, ensuring an even coat over the entire stripped surface. Allow it to sit for the recommended time (check product instructions). Finally, thoroughly rinse the deck with water using a garden hose and nozzle. This step brightens the wood, neutralizes the stripping chemicals, and helps return the wood to its natural color.
Goal: Restore wood's natural color and clean the surface
