Overview

Cuprinol Decking Cleaner is an all-in-one decking cleaner that is perfect for use on garden decking, patios and stonework. Containing specially formulated detergents, it effectively cleans a wide range of surface contaminates, including dirt, grease and green algae.

This product can be used as a pre-treatment for cleaning biological matter from wooden decking before applying a Cuprinol decking oil or decking stain. Cuprinol Decking Cleaner is not intended as a replacement for the regular treatment of decking.

Preparation

Remove excessive organic growth and soiling with a scraper, stiff brush or broom before treating decking boards with Cuprinol Decking Cleaner.

Application

Always do small a test area before beginning any project to check suitability and compatibility. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times.

  1. Apply Cuprinol Decking Cleaner by brush only
  2. Scrub affected area with a stiff brush, leave for a few minutes and then rinse off with water
  3. Leave for at least 1hr, drying times can vary depending on the nature of the surface and the weather conditions
  4. Allow to dry fully before staining or oiling the deck

Please Note: Heavily soiled decking may require a second application to fully clean. Take care to ensure that Cuprinol Decking Cleaner doesn't come into contact with nearby plants, fish ponds, watercourses or drains.

Does what it says on tin

I used to clean decking prior to applying decking oil and it removed grime and algae, although had to apply 2 coats to fully remove the algae. Apart from that satisfied with product.

Does the job

Fairly light cleaning product, cleans up teak nicely but not so good for stripping heaiver dirt without pressure washer.

Generally impressed

I was not expecting too much, but this really did help clean very soiled decking. Scraped & scrubbed surface deposits from the boards first and then scrubbed again with this cleaner diluted with about 40% water. Still took some elbow grease, but almost all the old black stains were removed. It doesn't go as far as I hoped, however, and I had to buy more.

Effective deck cleaner

Used this product ahead of applying Cuprinol anti slip decking paint. Scrubbed using patio wire bristle cleaning broom to remove worn in lichen and moss. Cleaned up old deck a treat before application of Curinol Anti slip deck paint.

Wow!!

Used this to prepare decking before i stained it, in fairness the decking needs replacing and was covered in green moss and felt slippery underfoot. I sprayed half of this product on the decking with a watering can then the rest I mixed in a bucket and applied before using a decking brush, rinsed then used the brush again and a final rinse and wow. If we had used a pressure washer it would have damaged the wood im sure but this stuff cleaned it really well. Needs to be seen to be believed how good it was hence im bothering to take the time to write this!

Did exactly what I required

This did a great job on my decking that came with a house I had bought

Just as it says

At first I didn't think it was working, but as son as the decking was dry it looked completely transformed! Just like new again. I would definitely use it again.

Powerful indeed - Read Warnung instructions!

I recently used it on a decking refurbishment for a prep clean. Whilst I believed to have followed all safety precautions, I experienced first hand, or shall I say 'first leg', just how powerful the ammonium based detergent is: During prep work using a diluted portion, all was fine. After the deck clean I thoroughly rinsed the deck off, let it dry and continued with sanding off the next day. As it was the hot September weather, I worked in shorts for the sanding. One time my unprotected knee got in touch with the dried timber deck surface. Later I found that this short encounter caused a painful skin irritation for days! I am giving it four stars, as it was not entirely clear that even in the dried state the tiny amount of skin moisture sufficed to reactivate a diluted residue film to have this impact on my skin... Otherwise I can't fault it.

Rather time consuming

Lots of scrubbing needed with this product. Additional algae remover needed if your decking has green patches.

C

It's a deck cleaner

My deck gets wet and not a lot of sun so getting it clean is critical

Very easy to use.

Effective, efficient. I have a big algae problem and have tried other products, none of which came anywhere near this.
