 hi all
 looking at a large area of decking tommorow with ballistrade etc.

 iam assuming its proper pressure treated decking not some old floorboards screwed down.

 and after does anyone re treat it with seal or varnish?

 where are you Rob ,Alan,Lee ;D

I think Roger's name should be up there, he probably does more decking than any of us.

In this link to my site http://blast-away.co.uk/decking.aspx the decking cleaned in the image was firstly pre sprayed with hypo. The decking was never treated or stained previously.

Roger wears a pair of Oakley shades whilst working. He makes pressure washing look cool.  ;)

Search the old posts - everything you need is there, What to use, how to use it and also how to wash it off. the last one I did was very small and I used a gallon of cheap bleach, a doodlebug with a black pad and the customers hose
