  • Clean Millboard decking

    How can I safely and effectively clean Millboard decking? Is it different to other similar types of decking (similar in style and material that is)? And what approaches should be taken that are different here? Any ideas? Are there any products in particular that I should use that are specifically designed for use on Millboard decking? Thanks!
