SW bought it about 3 years ago from the original manufacturer. Not sure if they messed with the formula or kept it the same.

Do you have any opinions on that brand. I believe Sherwin Williams sells it.

No way to be certain.

Try the Restore A Deck Prep Kits and the TWP 100 Series stain.

I plan on letting the green treated deck sit (season) for a year, but from what I am reading, I should do something with the rough cut cedar wrap. I plan on cleaning it, using a brightener and then clear sealing it.

My first question is: Will any of the cleaner and/or brightener hurt the green treated decking below it along with the aluminum powder coated railing if I get it on either of these?

Also, What products are recommended for this project? (Cleaner, brightener and sealer)

Thanks
