I used the newer product last week on the deck. I have to tell you that it worked extremely well. The ease of the application couldn’t be any easier! The decking has not looked this good since the week it was installed! Actually, in the next day or so I am going out to purchase more of the Corte*Clean for the hand rails, balusters and bottom rails. Now I know to look for the Best If Used By: date on the package. I am truly very pleased with your product… Thank you again for your time and assistance with my concerns/issues. Sincerely yours, S. Lubin
