Thank you so much for your advice. It inspired me to get real cleaning brushes and not use the broom. So I have to ask, what is the brand of that heat pad and do you recommend it? Would it be good for a chimera, protect PVC Azak deck? Thanks!
Thanks so much Brian and Jen! It's actually not a heat pad, it happens to be a table top that went to an outdoor table. Its a pretty thick piece of concrete masonry with a tile mosaic on the top. Although not it's original intended purpose, it works well for going under our smoker. I wish I could give some advice on what to put under a chimera, but unfortunately I'm not very knowledgeable in that area and wouldn't want to give wrong or misinformed guidance. I'd just say be cautious anytime you put a fire feature on a deck. Good luck!
How do you remove white-stain on the composite deck caused by Zippo lighter fuel spill? We tried brushing the stain using dish soap and medium brush. It made the white-stain spots less white but now it's kind of more spreaded out or blended white. Please help !!!
I would recommend reaching out to the decking manufacturer and get their advice. It sounds like the lighter fuel may have caused a reaction with the materials in the decking, resulting in the discoloration. If that's the case it may not be possible to clean it off. Good luck!
I'm not certain if dish washer detergent is safe to use on composite decking or not. I always recommend checking with the manufacturer of the decking to see what they recommend for cleaning solutions. Good luck!
It is Original Krud Kutter Concentrate. The mixture we used was 1-1/2 cups of concentrate to 1 gallon of water. www.homedepot.com/p/Krud-Kutter-1-gal-Original-Concentrated-Cleaner-Degreaser-KK012/202525368 I do strongly recommend you contact the manufacturer of the product you are cleaning to get their list of approved detergents.
As a professional pressure wash company owner, DO NOT PUT A SURFACE CLEANER ON YOUR DECK! composite or not this is a big no no. Trex recommends 3100 psi but I just cleaned one that had some pretty good digs in it from that pressure. Stick with your detergents and a brush. If you've gotta apply, agitate and apply again do it. Pressure is very very very rarely the answer.
Ever hear or try Corte Clean?

Can I use normal dish washer detergent to clean my composite decking? I live in the U.K. I'm not sure what product to use.
