Decking
Boards are seasoned to the requirements of the applicable
Australian Standard
DECKING OILS/DECKING STAINS
Decking oils and stains are available which provide a relatively
natural, semi-transparent, protective finish. Solvent (Oil) or
water based stains are available often with mould inhibiting
additives.
Decking stains with light coloured pigments are recommended as
they absorb less heat and only slightly change the natural colour
of the timber.
Reapplication is generally necessary every one to five years
depending upon the amount of pigment included, and the degree of
exposure. Ensure manufactures recommendations are followed for
your chosen coating.
Note: The coating on the photos displayed is Sikkens Cetol Deck
DECKING MAIN TENANCE
Frequent wetting of decks should be avoided (sweep or clean, don’t
hose). Adequate ventilation should be provided to allow rapid
drying after rain or watering.
Pot
plants should be on trays and prevented from overflowing. Shrubs
which permanently shade the deck and creepers on rails etc. should
be avoided.
Reapplication of finishes will be required at regular intervals,
depending on finish type and degree of exposure.
Before
recoating all decks shall be thoroughly cleaned and debris removed
from between boards. For some finishes, decks may also require
sanding. Recoating shall be carried out in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations
