                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Have similar issue with my new redwood deck that was installed last July. Now it has mildew looking dirty dark spots. Tried cleaning with Scotts Outdoor Cleaner and it didn't work. Tried to scrub one section multiple times to test with  a deck cleaning brush and it did not work either. Appears the grime or mold has penetrated the stain into the wood. Stain I used was Sherwin Williams Deckscapes. Natural color.  I live in Inland NW,Spokane Wa. Not much snow this past winter but a lot of moisture. <br />

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Late this spring, after cleaning and brightening, I sealed my cedar deck using the Armstrong Clark product.
