Deck Cleaning with Linseed Oil

Deck Building
with KwikDek

"We installed KwikDek around our swimming pool - it's a great alternative to an expensive deck that might become water damaged over the years.  The KwikDek looks great, and feels even better on our feet."

Do you have a concrete patio, wood sun deck or garden path that is unsightly due to cracking and deterioration? Do you wish you could repair or replace it but this doesn’t fit in your budget right now?

KwikDek™ is the cosmetic, cost-effective and EASY way to fix the problem. KwikDek™ is made from genuine exotic woods, backed with a unique plastic grid. Spacing between the wood slats permit rain to flow through, while the plastic “feet” elevate the wood, allowing airflow for drying.

Compared to conventional patio replacement, a KwikDek™ cosmetic makeover can be done much faster and for far less money. The typical time and labor to break up and remove old concrete, set new forms, pour and level out cement could run thousands of dollars and take several days. With KwikDek™ you can save at least half of the expense, and be ready to entertain on your new surface in an hour or two.

Living in a rental? KwikDek™ snaps apart as easily as it snaps together. Take KwikDek™ with you when you move. Try that with a concrete pad or wood deck!

The Interlocking tabs make installation almost as easy as "child's play". You need only the skills you learned as a kid playing with Legos™ and Lincoln Logs™.

Maintenance and Cleaning Comparisons with Traditional Decking

Eliminate Discoloration
Eliminate discoloration through preventive measures. Deck wood frequently stains when planters remain in the same place, season after season. To avoid this, simply move your potted plants every three months to give all areas of the deck a chance to dry out and weather with the sun. Some water repellents also contain chemicals to prevent mildew or block ultra-violet light. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and safety precautions when you apply the product. KwikDek™ is made from genuine exotic Asion woods, and there is a 5 year guarantee against discoloration.

Finally, keep safety in mind when working with treated wood. Don't ever place it in areas where it might come into direct contact with food, and never dispose of the scraps by burning them. And, as with all wood-working projects, remember to wear safety glasses.

How should I clean my KwikDek?
Light debris or dirt that may collect between the wood slats of KwikDek can be removed with a broom, leaf blower, vacuum cleaner, or spray from a garden hose or pressure washer.

How does the sun affect the surface...Does it fade?
Since KwikDek is made with a prefinished hardwood, it will be more fade resistant than a standard deck. You only need to put a coat of Linseed Oil on it once a year to keep it looking great for years to come.

Do you have to refinish it every year?
Since KwikDek is prefinished with a natural finish, you need only put a wood penetrating oil, like linseed oil, on the surface once a year to maintain its appearance.
