Its unique bi-level shape maintains brush-to-surface contact from any angle, so it cleans effectively on flat boards, in corners, and along railings without constant repositioning. Product Summary Bi-level design keeps bristles in contact with the deck surface from any angle Attaches to a standard threaded pole (sold separately) for standing use Works on wood and composite decking Pairs with Restore-A-Deck Wood Cleaner for scrubbing in dirt, mold, and mildew during the cleaning step Deck Scrub Brush: Frequently Asked Questions What brush should I use to scrub a deck? Use a stiff bristle deck scrub brush designed for exterior wood, like the Restore-A-Deck Bi-Level Wood Deck Scrub and Wash Brush. Its bi-level shape keeps bristles in contact with the surface from multiple angles, which lifts dirt, mold, and mildew more effectively than a standard flat brush or household scrub brush. How do I scrub a deck before staining? Apply a deck cleaner like Restore-A-Deck Wood Cleaner, let it dwell for 5-15 minutes, then scrub with a stiff bristle brush attached to a threaded pole, working with the grain of the wood. Focus extra scrubbing on mildew stains and heavily grayed areas before rinsing thoroughly. Should I use a deck brush or a pressure washer? Both have a role. A deck brush physically breaks up dirt, mold, and mildew that a pressure washer alone can miss, especially in grain and corners. Pressure washing is best for rinsing the cleaner off afterward. Using a brush before or during cleaning, then rinsing with a hose or pressure washer, gets the best results. How do I apply deck cleaner with a brush? Spray or pour the mixed cleaner onto the wood, then scrub it in with a deck scrub brush while the surface is still wet, working in manageable sections so the cleaner doesn’t dry before you rinse. Let it dwell as directed before rinsing thoroughly with a hose or pressure washer. How long should a deck dry after scrubbing before staining? Let the deck dry for at least 24-48 hours after cleaning and rinsing before staining, unless you’re using Restore-A-Deck Wood Stain, which can be applied to damp wood.
