Do not allow detergent to dry on surface.
Using the white 40 degree nozzle, rinse at high pressure in a long sweeping motion keeping the spray nozzle approximately 35 inches (90 cm) andslowly approach the surface until desired  results are achieved. Make sure you are not causing any surface damage before cleaning the rest of the deck. Always clean from top to bottom and left to right. When moving on to a new  section of the cleaning surface, be sure to overlap the previous section to eliminate stop marks and ensure a more even cleaning result. For more information, go to https://www.kaercher.com/int/home-garden/know-how/cleaning-wooden- decking.html
Cars, Boats & Motorcycles
