How do the colours look?
Use on...
Give the tin a really good stir. Check you're happy with the colour by finding a small patch of wood to try it on. Use a synthetic brush or decking pad and start in the furthest corner, brushing along the length of the boards.
Work on 3-4 boards at a time so you don't get any overlap marks. You'll need to put on 2 coats. Leave 4 hours between each coat. After 24 hours you'll be able to get your furniture out and use the deck. If you get any coating on yourself, wash it off with warm, soapy water.
Take as much of the coating off your brush or decking pad as you can and then wash in warm, soapy water. Don't empty any left over product into drains or watercourses. Your local authority may have special ways to get rid of waste coastings.
Choose a warm, dry day (above 10ᵒC) and clear the deck.
New decks
Most new decks come with a bit of waterproofing protection. This could stop the coating from sticking. To avoid this, give your new deck a good scrub with our Decking Cleaner & Reviver. Once scrubbed, throw some water on the deck and see if it beads. If it doesn't then you're good to go. If it does, you'll have to clean it again until the water stops beading. Allow the wood to dry thoroughly before applying Ronseal Xactly Decking. Make sure you waterproof your new end grain or any freshly cut deck ends using Ronseal Decking End Grain Protector.
Untreated, weathered & grey decks
Ronseal Xactly Decking will look much better on a nice, clean deck, so use our Decking Restorer to take it back to its natural colour. It also helps the stain to stick, so your deck will look great for longer.
Previously treated decks
If your deck has been previously painted or oiled, use our Decking Stripper to get it back to bare wood. If your deck has been previously stained, don't try to cover a dark stain with a lighter colour. You'll need to strip it first using our Decking Stripper.
Give the tin a really good stir. Check you're happy with the colour by finding a small patch of wood to try it on. Brush it on with a synthetic brush in the direction of the woodgrain.
You'll need to put on 2 coats. Leave 4 hours between each coat. Give the surface a light sand with 240 grit sandpaper and wipe away any dust with a damp cloth before putting on the last coat. This coat will be rainproof in 1 hour.
