A bunch of years ago, I made a promotional video which vaguely illustrated how I clean a deck with oxygen bleach (a.k.a. sodium percarbonate / OxiClean / etc). It was never meant to be a "how to" but it sure lead to a lot of "how to" questions!

This video here is a basic HOW TO... sort of like "Deck Cleaning 101." As any professional exterior cleaner or deck restorer knows, much more can be said and done about cleaning a wood deck, but I hope this video answers the zillion basic questions I continue to get to this day, all based upon that silly promotion video from years ago.
