Deck Seal New

After Deck Seal is applied it dries clear (transparent) so that you can see the beautiful wood decking . Deck Seal does have a slight tint that actually enhances the look of the decking. The tint provides UV protection from the suns damaging rays, as it is the suns rays that "gray" the wood.

Deck Seal coats the wood preventing water from entering the wood but still allowing the wood to breath. Wood needs to breath to allow the wood to dry quickly. Logically if water can't enter the wood then mold can't grow.

Deck Seal has mold inhibitors in the stain that will prevent mold growth.

Deck Seal provides the 3 biggest factors that a good exterior stain should provide.

1. Provides UV Protection
2. Repels Water
3. Resists mold growth

Deck Seal is an environmentally friendly solution:

• It has no Odor
• It has low VOC's
• it is water based

A significant advantage of using Deck Seal is when it comes time for another coat of stain. There is no sanding and no scraping required. If you didn't let it go too long you can just spray it right over the last coat, but if it did go a little too long just quickly clean the deck with Deck Wash and spray the deck sealer on again.

Application Directions:

1. If the deck is not new then a complete cleaning is needed prior to applying the Deck Seal. We at Wash Safe Canada manufacture a product called Deck Wash, which is an Eco-safe cleaning solution that will remove all mold spores and organic debris leaving the deck looking like new. The Deck Wash also removes the microscopic outer layer of dead wood and leaves a fresh layer of beautiful cedar (cleaners like bleach will not remove that layer of wood). Deck Wash is the perfect preparation for Deck Seal. Read about Deck Wash here.
2. Allow 48 hours to dry.
3. Apply Deck Seal, it can be brushed, rolled or sprayed, spraying being the easiest. Apply 1 liberal coat.

Deck Seal will provide 3 years of protection, at some point during the 3rd year we recommend applying another coat of Deck Seal, if you keep that schedule cleaning between coats will not be necessary.

Coverage: Each gallon will cover approximately 250sq ft.

Deck Seal Reviews and Ratings

We bought this for our dock, we needed a true "waterbase" sealer, we didn't want oil drips going in the water. IT was easy to use, it goes on thick so that it doesn't drip much but dries to the touch quickly. I even walked on it when it was wet and it did not leave foot prints. Our dock is pressure treated, it looks just perfect, I highly recommend it.

I used the Deck Seal on a mahogany deck if you want to enjoy the look of the mahogany wood without bright tints and highlighted colors I suggest using this, this was just what I was looking for. You can feel the product in the wood, this isn't some watered dowm Thompsons sealer, this really is nice stuff.

No fumes, no awful odors and the deck was dry the next day. Love it. Great deck wash product too. Sarah Jensen commented on March 27, 2011. Everything the website claimed was true, the Deck Seal was easy to use and easy to clean up after and the finish looks wonderful.
