You might need to keep scrubbing with a wire brush to get rid of the particularly stubborn sections. Now it’s time to apply the paint or stain. It’s best to use a roller for this, but you can use a brush for smaller areas. Many people have also used an airless sprayer with good results. Just be aware that the paint or stain will not go as far if you use this method.Alternatively, if you don’t want to use chemicals, a pressure washer, stiff wire brush and some elbow grease may be enough for accumulated dirt. However, we don’t recommend this method if you have mould as it can make the problem worse. You absolutely must treat and clean mould first. They’re also more slip-resistant which is important to consider if you have young children or elderly people living in your home. For the best possible results you’ll want a pressure washer but scrubbing hard works fine too. Simply dilute it down a bit if you like and spray it on with a pressure sprayer. A cautionary word that you may change the colour of your timber temporarily until you stain or oil it again. The result is normally something near new. Pros: Alternatively use through a pressure washer set between 2-5% using a surface cleaner or car jet attachment for your lance. Rinse off product completely after use to neutralise the surface. Stains are also really durable against footfall. They create a tough layer over the top of the wood so they can cope with a lot of footfall. However, this layer can become slippery when wet.
