Composite Decks are Great When They’re CleanComposite decking is an excellent choice for decking material. It’s beautiful, durable and resists warping, rot and wood eating insects. Composite decking will last a lifetime and, like everything else in life, just needs an occasional cleaning. Timbertech and Trex are the most popular brands for which our customers use the Wash Safe Spray & Clean Composite Deck Cleaner. Our product works equally as well on other brands of composite decks. |
Safe, Effective Cleaning PowerTo formulate this product, we had to use a small percentage of chlorine bleach (only 5%). The chlorine is transported into the pores of the composite decking by a special formula of surfactant chemicals, where it can remove the stains within the pores of the decking without scrubbing. |
Helpful Tips for Best Results Cleaning Your Composite DeckIf this is the first time you have cleaned your deck it’s possible that there are deep set stains that the solution didn’t reach. These may rise to the surface and the mold stains would need to be cleaned again. This may happen once or twice after the initial cleaning. Once the initial cleaning phase is over, keep your composite decking looking good by diluting 4 parts water with 1 part Spray & Clean and spraying your deck every 60 days or so during the season. Spraying your deck an hour or two before an oncoming rain storm is a perfect way to rinse your deck naturally. |

How to Clean Composite Decks Safely and Effectively Without Bleach
Wash Safe Spray & Clean Composite Deck Cleaner Preparation
- Decide your dilution ratio mix of Spray & Clean with warm water (hot if possible)
Each gallon of Spray & Clean will clean 250 sq. ft. of decking but the product may be diluted in different ratios depending on the condition, age, time of last cleaning and brand of your decking. In extreme cases Spray & Clean should be used straight without dilution. For routine (maintenance type) cleaning Spray & Clean should be diluted 4:1 (4 parts water 1 part Spray & Clean, in that ratio 1 gallon of Spray & Clean would make 5 gallons of cleaning solution.
- Put mix in a garden pump sprayer
