Power Wash Your Wooden Deck Properly
Wood decks are constantly exposed to the damaging effects of weather and other elements. That’s why it is critical to have them cleaned and scaled on a regular basis. A poorly maintained deck will quickly turn gray in color. This change in color is a sign of deterioration due to dirt, mold, algae and other harmful elements.
While you can purchase a wood sealer from your local home improvement store, it’s just one part of what it takes to do a proper wood restoration project. Instead of restoring, you may even end up tearing or damaging your deck.
No need to worry about this intricate process – Blue Dawg Pressure Wash is here!

Front porch steps are Trek Deck Floor. Changed steps during some interior
house remodeling. Also, again I repeat, I do not advise or recommend Behr
Deck products. Used it two other times and w/in months, flaking off, EVEN
after using all their prep products and instructions on use. Hope Restore
Deck Repair products.
Anxious to see how you make out! I’m thinking of using this product on a
treated walkway that I built out back about 20 years ago. It looks about
like your decking boards, so I should be able to expect similar results.
Good Luck and hope you post another video as you go along!
Good Luck looks like a lot of deck to tackle. I am going to do mine which
is a 11x 20. What are you going to use on the vertical wood? Any
suggestions?
I’m going to use the vertical stain that Rustoleum offers in this product
line. I’ll use it in bright white for the 170 spindles and railings. Deck
color not picked out yet. Hope to start this weekend, after weeks of rain,
we got 90° & 80% humidity!! Will be video posting soon. Thanks for viewing!!
Hey John, thanks for the video posting. I’m in the process of doing this to
my deck as well. I just finished the second coat of acrylic stain the deck
rails. I used a pressure sprayer and used zinsser primer on the verticals
and rails. I hope the primer helps make the stain stick and not flake off.
So far I’ve been very happy with the results. I’ll try an post some of the
videos I have of the project so far. Tomorrow and the next day I’m hoping
to roll the stuff on the deck boards.
nice
When in the planning phase of a very large multi deck project my client and
I contacted Rust-O-Leum support staff in regards to their product Restore.
We explained to them that we were going to put their product over another
product on one deck and we needed to seal their product on all the decks.
The Restore did not adhere to the other product we were covering and
bubbled up even when we told the specifically what the other product was.
We had to completely re-deck this deck
The product is very difficult to apply and leaves a lot of roller maker
regardless of how you apply it. Restore is not a good product to go over
other products even when it says it’s ok on the side of their product.
Restore is not a good product if you are trying to seal and protect your
wood. The Restore support staff is a complete joke and even after they
completely miss guided us on how to use their product they will not help us
on how to figure out what to do from here.
Will: I understand what you wrote. During the long waits between crazy
weather here in the Cleveland area, I was continuing my research before
actually starting the resurfacing. I did use Restore’s cleaning, but not
the surface product. I switched to Duck Products Deck and Dock. I’ve
finished all the railings and spindles (415 of them!) and will be putting
the surface coats ASAP. Your reasons were why I changed mid stream.
I just love this stuff too. We put it on so it looks like composite when we
get done. Check out the bigwaveconstruction channel and see what I mean.
Also, my new how to is way better than my first how to.
We called Restore and talked with their staff after following their very
specific instructions we ended up with a nightmare I posted a video called
“Restore Deck Nightmare” People should watch this video before buying this
stuff.

I did my porch back in June/July this year, 2013. It looks like HELL now!
RustOleum Deck Restore is a Farce! A lot of work and no satisfaction
whatsoever. Even after the first rain, there was already problems! I do not
recommend this product. I am attempting to get my $$ back. Will never
recover the $$ for the time it took me to do the work.
Listen, Ive done a couple of decks and heres how you do it:
1. Use a strong powerwasher to strip the old paint and mildew/dirt from the
deck
2.You use wood filler to fill in all the imperfections/rotting in the wood.
If a piece is sticking up you just rip it off and use wood filler to fill
in the missing strip.
3. Sand down all wood filler and left over paint that didn’t get
powerwashed away. This is tiring task, so start with the areas you will
notice the most.
4. Blow the dust particles and any debris away with a blower.
5. Use an sprayer to get the spindles on your deck. Theres no way you can
do this by brush it will break your back.
6. Fill in the cracks and inbetween the boards with paint by big brush
first, then go over the rest of it with a roller. Theres no need to alter a
roller. That guy was full of crap.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for at least a 2nd coat, and if you can, a 3rd.
There you go. The honest truth on how to do it the right way. It is back
breaking but it can be rewarding and you can save a nice chunk of change if
you have the time.
I used a power washer as well – that didn’t keep it from failing. $5,000
loss!
Consider yourself warned.
Update: Last year I was all prepared to use Rustoleum Deck Restore until I
got hit with weather that played havoc with me. After completely prepping
the deck and railings/spindles I did some checking and found better
product, in my opinion. When the weather allowed, I switched to Duck
Product, Deck and Dock. What a difference. 1) finishes with smooth surface,
not gritty. 2) covers better with little less product, and 3) has a greater
elasticity. I was able to get my 313 spindles and 125 ft of railings done
but didn’t get the deck surface done. That will be attacked as soon as the
weather allows. I’ll keep you updated with comments and videos.
John
You have a really nice deck!
John also used Behr Premium Deck solid. Prepped and cleaned, did it all
right. Terrible product… looks great and goes on easy. But it does not
last! Thanks for steering me away from the Rustoleum product also. I used
Cabot solid stains on some wood benches and fence… works great and I’m in
year 3 without redoing any of it.
We just hit 8 months on our deck after applying Deck Restore, it has failed
miserably. After following the directions perfectly. I didn’t last a year.
For God’s sake, I hope that you didn’t go ahead with this project using
Rust-Oleum Restore. Please, please, please look at all the terrible reviews
of the horrible product before you waste your time & money.
Just look on YouTube for “Rustoleum Restore Horror Story” if you want to
see my tale of woe.
I have a Deck Restore Horror Story video online, too. Please join us on
Facebook at “Rust-Oleum Restore Users” when it fails for you. Refund of
the product price doesn’t begin to cover damages.
