A Helpful Tip From Our Experts

Give your back a break! Use the EziHand Tool Attachment on your broom to stand upright while you scrub.

Precautions

  • Timber decks can become incredibly slippery once the grime loosens and the solution starts bubbling. Always wear sturdy, closed-toe footwear with good grip.
  • If you have a stained, painted, or very old timber deck, test the product on a small, inconspicuous area first to check for colour fastness.
  • Wear gloves and eye protection to keep any splashes or bubbling grime away from your skin and eyes.

Product works well on pine decks, only requiring medium scrubbing with the long handled brush. However with hardwood decks such as our purple heart deck it does require A LOT of scrubbing. Had to get knee pads and scrubbed on all fours for half a day with a hand held brush. I think I expected it to be easier to be honest but still happy with the outcome.

Just want you to know that your Hit The Deck product really works. I bought a house which was built in the 70s, two years ago. I don't think the deck was ever maintained. I applied HTD and used a buffing machine to get rid of most of the mould. Then I used a brush with short bristles to get rid of the remaining stubborn stains. It took me a few hours, but look at the results.

thought I'd give it a go as we were about to paint the fence after 30 years, as was not sure if it would work? REALLY IMPRESSED!!!!!!!, now looks like a new fence, totally cleaned, ready for painting, I would confess I should of read the instructions properly, but got there in the end and brought another bucket of "Hit The Deck" just in case, well worth the Money :) Really happy.

This stuff is phenomenal! I don’t know what I expected but it would have surpassed any expectations I had! Easy to mix, easy to apply. Used a pressure washer and the dirt came off like nothing! I am amazed and ecstatic with the results!.

So pleased we tried Hit the Deck...amazing result on our mouldy, unpainted pine decking. Had tried other products, with no success. Thank you.

Our deck has never been cleaned in its life as far as we can tell, and it's beside a lake so cold and damp in winter. We are so happy with the outcome from buying the right product, and now certainly notice all the other decks around which would benefit from the same attention!

An incredible product. I have a deck which has looked old and black and seen better days . It was like it when I purchased the property 5 years ago . The boxed steps leading to the backyard from the deck looked so black and horrible that all in all I decided the only option was to replace the deck and had quotes from 7 -10k to replace all boards and build new steps. I saw the add on the internett for Hit the Deck so went into the Wet and Forget Store to purchase the product along with the recommended long handle bristle brush . I cannot believe the results !! Absolutely incredible and true to your advertisements of before and after. I cannot stop looking at my ' new ' deck 😀 . I now don't need to spend 7 -10 k !! 😀😃 as Hit the Deck uncovered beautiful timber which had been covered over in black mould ..at least 5 years or more of black mould all gone ! Thank you for this incredible amazing product ! I will be recommending it too my friends and will write a review 😀. Regards with many thanks. Ronda

Oh my gosh "Hit the Deck" is an AWESOME product! I'm so annoyed I didn't take a before pic of our deck (to be honest, I didn't think the product would actually do what it says it does, our deck was really bad, black with mould and mildew, over 10+ years of being neglected) but it did, and WOW looks like a new deck! Can't wait to stain it up now and get ready for summer :) Thanks guys for making such an awesome product, at a really good price too

Before using I thought it would be an half decent result as I had oiled our brand new deck with boiled linseed oil last year not realising this was a big no no. It was tacky for weeks so everything stuck to it. Hit the deck took it all off with very little scrubbing effort. I did use a scrubbing brush after the broom though to get it all. Very impressed with the product.

Andrew Lord

There's a bit of work involved with scrubbing, but the results in a very old mouldy deck are better than I ever could have expected! A great product that works like no other.

Rachael Bradley

Have had this tub of Hit the Deck for a couple of years now, with the intention of giving our deck a proper clean, but always ended up just waterblasting the deck as a shortcut, with decidedly average results. I have finally busted out this cleaning product and I wish I had done it two years ago! I'm only halfway through (just doing what I can in the dry weather breaks) but wow, what a difference! I intend to give it a second go over to really bring it up; and the next move will be a coating of Bone Dry to save my beautiful new results. Stoked with this product - I highly recommend.

Brian Brown

Hi our deck had light mould staining plus the deck stain had deteriorated after only about three years since new . So went to our Pukekohe store and got a tub of Hit The Deck and also got the hard bristle broom as well , a must have ! The deck has been brought back to as new , I keep going out and looking at it can't believe how good it has come up ,its come back way better than I could have hoped . Hard to beat this product 10 out of 10 !

I'm amazed how great our old timber stairs look after using this product. It dissolves the black mould and dirt into a sludge that can be rinsed away. The wood underneath looks like new. I gave it a lot of scrubbing with a hand brush (due to awkward corners on stairs) but the results were worth the hard work. I'm really pleased.

I was amazed by the results after using Hit the Deck and it was worth paying the extra for a great quality product ! Following winter my deck was grimy, slippery and green but the Hit the Deck has made such a difference and it looks like new. You do need to follow the instructions and make sure the powder is dissolved and it takes a bit of work with the scrubbing brush but is definitely worth it for the results .
