Simple Green Deck and Fence Cleaner is ideal for both manual and pressure washing your entire deck, lifting dirt, grease and sap from wood and composite surfaces. If using a pressure washer, avoid using a maximum pressure setting, as too much force can damage the wood fibers. Spot test on a remote or hidden part of the deck to ensure appropriate pressure.
DIRECTIONS:
Not for use on untreated wood.
USING A PRESSURE WASHER
- Clear the surface of your deck and sweep thoroughly. Then hose down the surface of your deck.
- Place the pressure washer's siphon and filter into your Simple Green Deck and Fence Cleaner container, or pour into the pressure washer's detergent reservoir.
- Apply Simple Green to the deck in sections, keeping the tip at least 2 feet from the surface of your deck.
- Allow 5-10 minutes for the solution to loosen soils. Do not allow the solution to dry on the surface.
- Scrub visibly dirty areas lightly to remove heavy soils.
- Rinse well with pressure washer, making sure to go with the grain of your deck. Be sure to remove all cleaner and lifted dirt from your deck.
