I have been trying to find some feedback on Corte-Clean used for cleaning composite decks. Has anyone tried it? They are heavily endorsed and I want to hear from someone before I bring it in if possible. I have been using the softwash system with SH for cleaning composite but they are posing this as the better approach?
Have you used Corte-Clean?

You are cleaning decks with SH? I would only use SPC on wood and composite materials, just a whole lot safer for the deck in my opinion.

JAred are you talking about trex decks and the like. Call me if you are.

That stuff is ok if your deck is not too dirty or moldy. So it's ok for up keep after it's cleaned professionally.

I had a customer ask me to clean their Trex deck with Corte Clean. I didn't really want to mess with it but I agreed to try it before going my usual route. They bought the product and I brought a pole and a deck brush. I mixed it at a slightly stronger ratio than recommended because their deck was pretty spotted with mold. I brushed about a 3 ft section for 10 minutes with mediocre results. The customer looked at it and said, "Well, it looks better doesn't it?" I said, "Yea, but I'll be here for 2 days if you want me to do the whole thing this way and that just means a lot more $$ in labor." We ended up cleaning it with a strong house wash mix and have done it another time since with great results.
