Which SuperDeck^® cleaning product you need depends on the condition of your deck or porch.

Stain & Sealer Remover should be used on all exterior wood that has been previously treated or stained. Always follow up with an application of Revive™.

Revive™ neutralizes Stain & Sealer Remover and restores the natural appearance of cedar or redwood. Revive also takes the factory finish off of new wood.

Deck Wash removes mold and mildew from composite decking and unstained pressure-treated wood.

The type of stain you choose depends on the appearance and durability you want to achieve.

Clear stains offer the least UV protection, but provide an optimum view of natural wood grain.

Toners provide a light color that highlights wood grain and provides good durability.

Semi-transparent stains provide excellent durability and a rich, pigmented color that allows the natural wood grain to show through. For severely weathered natural wood, Sherwin-Williams recommends that you apply two coats of semi-transparent deck stain.

Solid color stains help cover up wood blemishes or unsightly grain while offering maximum durability. Advanced technology makes Solid Color Stain a perfect choice for composite decking.
