What is the best method of application?

I put it on with a string mop. Of course, the deck was new so it wasn't really too soiled. This summer(if it ever stops raining) I will repeat the process and then rinse, let it dry and put on another thin coat of Defy stain. I had used another product to clean some really soiled cedar but the Defy was ever so much better

Does this product cleans and brighten a deck?

Oh yeah! My deck is fir, it was sunburned grey. I took an Oreck orbital floor machine and put on the stiff brush. First I cleaned the deck...that's another product. The Oreck removed loose stain, dirt and opened the grain. Then I put this on, rinsed it off and used Defy's deck stain. It looks better than new.

how long will this brightner keep deck bright

Hi there. I used the brightened just prior to staining my deck. And Wow! What a difference . You can clearly see a difference after the wood has been "brightened".If you don't apply a stain over it I am not sure how long it will stay like that or even if it will.

how is this product different than just oxalic acid? I'm refinishing some beehives this winter and not sure which to use?
