There are specialist deck cleaning products available...worth a try. These are just two... http://cabots.com.au/product-detail/1463/deck-clean http://www.intergrain.com.au/reviva.html I can recommend Reviva - we use it on our decking every year or two before re-oiling. Hi Kek, I sanded my decking and used the Reviva as deck cleaning product - it has helped alot. The black is now around 80% gone...I will do one more time, hopefully will be completely gone. Thanks for suggesting this. Re: Merbau decking disaster - Please help!!! 6Feb 10, 2013 4:34 pm Glad to hear it helped. We've found it to be a really good product. Intergain's decking oil is the bee's knees too. Re: Merbau decking disaster - Please help!!! 7Jul 10, 2020 9:47 pm Keen to know how you got rid of the black. I’ve just had a herringbone merbau done and the trestle table the chippy was cutting on had metal legs that were on the new timber and it’s feet left deep black spots. The timber is still raw and I’m hesitant to oil till the marks are lighter or better yet gone. How did you get rid of yours? Hi, as per the subject. Does anyone have any recommendations for the best value decking oil (Bunning is close to where I live) for a treated pine deck? Thanks 0 10970 Use a product like Equisol's Vitalise to clean the deck then coat with a penetrating timber oil. It will look 10 years younger and add value to your home.
