This type of stain usually occurs in shaded locations where water puddles exist. If treated early, mildew and algae can easily be removed.
Stubborn deposits require soaking with a more concentrated solution and moderate scrubbing.
High-traffic areas may require repeated applications for maximum results.
The best maintenance tip for black tire marks is to hose and clean the area on a regular basis to prevent a heavy build up of rubber and asphalt residue. Other good cleaners that can be used include Simple Green, Nature's Orange, Amway LOC or TSP.
Paint that is spilled or sprayed on SUNDEK should be quickly wiped up with a cloth. If the paint has dried, the affected area can be touched up with SUNDEK Finish Coat. Apply as you would water-based paint. Heavy paint-globs must be scraped off prior to applying the SUNDEK Finish Coat.
Do not use paint removers! These will damage the SUNDEK finish.
