What product should I use to clean and restore my Western Red Cedar deck?

May 18th, 2011

Cutek Green Wood Restoration

There seems to be many cleaning and restoring wood products on the marketplace today but many of them do not seem to work as well as they state they will. Deck cleaning can be a labor of love at the best of times and having to perform this task each spring can be exhausting to say the least. Many decks in Canada are made from Western Red Cedar and I have discovered that most homeowners and contractors are needing a product that can clean and restore the deck surface easily and cost effectively. Cutek Green wood cleaner and restoring product is the best product I have come across in a long time. I like this product because not only does it effectively clean and restore your deck surface but it also has a chemical agent that migrates through the wood that helps prevent against warp and twist of Western Red Cedar decking. The wood preservative that is used migrates through the entire pc of wood and drives out the moisture that exists in the wood cells thus making the wood more stable. Our company Otter Creek  is the Canadian distributor for this product and we would be glad to discuss its benefits in detail with any Canadian or U.S. homeowners and contractors by calling us at 1-800-981-3590 or you can purchase this product at www.myocstore.com

Cutek Green Wood Restoration

There seems to be many cleaning and restoring wood products on the marketplace today but many of them do not seem to work as well as they state they will. Deck cleaning can be a labor of love at the best of times and having to perform this task each spring can be exhausting to say the least. Most decks in Canada are made from pressure treated Spruce and I have discovered that most homeowners and contractors are needing a product that can clean and restore the deck surface easily and cost effectively. Cutek Green wood cleaner and restoring product is the best product I have come across in a long time. I like this product because not only does it effectively clean and restore your deck surface but it also has a chemical agent that migrates through the wood that helps prevent against warp and twist of pressure treated decking and we all know this can be a big problem in pressure treated product because of the high moisture content that can exist when purchased from the building retailer. The wood preservative that is used migrates through the entire pc of wood and drives out the moisture that exists in the wood cells thus making the wood more stable. Our company Otter Creek  is the Canadian distributor for this product and we would be glad to discuss its benefits in detail with any Canadian or U.S. homeowners and contractors by calling us at 1-800-981-3590 or this product can be purchased online at www.myocstore.com

Cutek Pro Clean for Weathered Decks

May 12th, 2011

Preparation for Cutek Pro Clean

Because of the wide variation in discoloration and wood species that are encountered, a test area should always be cleaned prior to commencement of the project to determine how much time the restoration procedure will require, and how much Cutek ProClean will be required.

This enables an accurate application procedure to be determined and cost estimated. It is important for the homeowner or contractor to determine the suitability of the product for its intended application.

It is preferable to use Cutek ProClean as supplied and it must always be mixed well before use. Sometimes however, the use of hot water rinsing combined with an easy to clean surface, means that Cutek ProClean can be diluted with water. If a choice to dilute the product is made, always test to determine if the dilution being used is effective in cleaning

Cutek ProClean Application

Apply Cutek ProClean liberally to a pre-wetted wood substrate with brush, roller, or garden sprayer. Let Cutek ProClean do most of the work by letting it dwell on the surface for 10 minutes — 8 hours, or such time as deemed to be necessary by the test procedure. It may be necessary to scrub stubborn stains moderately with a stiff fiber brush.

Recoating

Following the restoration of the timber with Cutek ProClean, it is important to complete the restoration process by coating the timber with Cutek® Green. Application of Cutek® Green eliminates the need for any future stripping because it will not form a film that will peel off like a varnish. Additionally, it has been specifically designed to maximize the dimensional stability and aesthetic qualities of natural wood, while providing protection against ultraviolet degradation, moisture and biological growth. Always remember that film-forming coatings can peel and may need to be sanded, stripped, or scraped when reapplication is necessary.

It is important that the restored wood is completely dry before the application of Cutek® Green. Allow 3 – 4 days of hot, fine drying weather. If unsure, use a moisture meter to measure the residual moisture content of the restored wood to make sure that it is less than 18% before coating.

If you would like further information or pruchase this product please contact Robert Abbott from Otter Creek at 1-800-981-3590 or visit their online store at www.myocstore.com
