I got my grotty deck sparkling without a pressure washer – just use a bucket and my secret ingredient | The Sun

A PROFESSIONAL cleaner has revealed her secret ingredient to bring her grotty deck up sparking again.

There was not a jet washer in sight for her method, that also included the humble bucket and a scrubbing brush.


But they were more than up to the job thanks to her secret potion.

“Deck cleaning without a pressure washer," announced Select Demo Final Clean (@selectdemofinalclean).

This lady should know what she is talking about and her TikTok is dedicated to her passion for cleaning hacks.

She has tackled most household jobs, even those that might usually escape the attentions of householders.

Her platform has offered tips on deep cleans of washing machines, window frames, sills and jambs, and even floor vents.

In this post, her camera panned round to demonstrate the state of her deck.

It had seen better days, with signs of algae present, and was ripe for a glow-up.

She set to work and first filled a bucket with hot water and then added her secret ingredient.

Into the mix she added OxiClean. Ordinarily a laundry whitener and stain remover, she had found it was perfect for cleaning a deck.

The water/OxiClean was poured over the area and she got scrubbing with a hand brush, but did say “you can use a push broom for larger areas.”

Once this part of the task was complete, she hosed the area down.

It came up a treat with no sign of green algae.There was one more job, however, that she said would have to wait: “Now time for stain."

One commenter concluded the post by expressing her gratitude.

“Thank you for posting this. I’m looking for a DIY deck cleaner and this was so satisfying to watch," she said.
