Q: Does decking oil stop algae?

• <div><p>Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.</p></div>

Q: Will painting a composite decking prevent warping?

• <div><p>The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best. </p></div>

Q: Should I pressure wash my deck before I paint it?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t have to pressure wash your deck before painting. However, you must clean the deck, and pressure washing is one of the most efficient methods. Pressure washing quickly removes flaked paint, wood fibers, and embedded dirt. It also gets much deeper into the wood surface than manually scrubbing the deck&mdash;and the cleaner the deck, the better the paint can adhere. Ensure the wood is fully dry before applying paint.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Is it better to brush or roll stain for decks?

• <div><p>It depends on the size of the surface. If you&rsquo;re covering a large area, a paint roller will allow you to stain the entire surface in much less time. Paint rollers also offer the advantage of creating a smoother, more even coat. However, they&rsquo;re not as practical for smaller surfaces such as banisters, spindles, and crevices&mdash;for these, opt for a paintbrush, paint mitt, or lint-free rag instead.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a top coat on a painted deck?

• <div><p>The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.</p></div>
