Trex Composite Type Deck Cleaning

First time practicing on composite at parents house. Used pump up sprayer to apply it

Looks a lot better. How strong did you go?

Looks good. In the future you could prob just downstream your mix or if its really bad x jet if you dont have a 12v. It’ll save you some time

2-3% @Racer

I haven’t even bought equipment yet so that’s why I used the pump sprayer. Even washed it down with a hose lol. But still 100x better than how it would look normally with my dad using a pw. Notice all the scratches

How many GPM is your pressure washer?

I tried the longer hose on my xjet pail. All it did was tangle up and tick me off. I have about 12’ on it now. I dont really use it much though. Only on stuff that needs a stronger mix than DS is capable of and here and there on a post treat

I shortened my xjet hose to about 2.5 feet. When I need to hit a spot with a strong mix of bleach or OneRestore or whatever, I just stick the drop tube in the gallon container and carry it around with me.

I don’t bother with the poly ball valve; just pull the drop tube out of the jug and suck some air through it.

This has worked surprisingly well for how little I use the xjet.

What chemical did you use for the composite decking? I see 1-2% but didn’t catch the chemical.
Thanks

Just SH with a little roof snot - just a weak roof mix
