Classic Deck composite repairs are simple, but co-extruded flooring is more difficult

Deck composite, as a new type of environmentally friendly material, is increasingly popular among consumers due to its waterproof, anti-corrosion, anti-ultraviolet and wear-resistant characteristics. During use, Deck composite will inevitably have some minor problems, such as bumps and scratches. This article will introduce you to the classic Deck composite repair method and co-extruded Deck composite damage treatment techniques in detail, so that you can easily solve these problems.

(2) Use sandpaper to polish: Use sandpaper of appropriate coarseness and fineness to polish the bumped area until the surface is flat.

(3) Apply finishing repair agent: Apply an appropriate amount of plastic wood repair agent to the polished area to allow the repair agent to fully penetrate into the damaged area.

(4) Drying: After the repair agent is completely dry, use fine sandpaper to gently sand the repaired area to make it consistent with the color of the surrounding floor.

2. Co-extruded Deck composite damage treatment techniques

Due to the special nature of the co-extruded layer, co-extruded Deck composite usually needs to be replaced once it is damaged. Here are some tips for co-extruded Deck composite damage treatment:

1. Check the degree of damage: First, determine the degree of damage to the co-extruded Deck composite. If the damage is serious, it is recommended to replace the new board.

2. Determine the replacement position: According to the degree of damage, determine the position of the board to be replaced. Before replacement, make sure that the new board is consistent with the old board in color and texture.

3. Remove the old board: Use professional tools such as crowbars, screwdrivers, etc. to remove the damaged board.

4. Install the new board: Install the new board to the specified position, ensure that the gap between the boards is uniform, and then fix it with special screws.

5. Sealing treatment: After installation, seal the gap between the new board and the old board to prevent water infiltration.

6. Cleaning and maintenance: Clean and maintain the co-extruded Deck composite regularly to extend its service life.

In short, the repair of small problems in classic Deck composite is relatively simple, and only small tools such as sandpaper are needed. The damage treatment of co-extruded Deck composite is more complicated, and once damaged, the board usually needs to be replaced.
