I had the Koa capricorn decking installed last week. lokks great but the dog scratches it with his teos nails. Can/How do you remove them. His nails were immediately trimmed. Can gouges get repaired or covered?
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 by Chris Fox:
If you’ve marred your Capricorn decking, it should fade over time. Because Capricorn will scratch and mar just like wood or any other composite decking, we recommend installing pads on outdoor furniture. Capricorn decking features a reversible woodgrain finish. So, in the unlikely event the durable polyethylene surface has been damaged beyond repair, flip the board over and reinstall. For additional questions, please contact customer service at 877-463-8379.

We like our Trex deck but after 6 mo the mold &/or meldew spots are unsitely. How is this cleaned & prevented.
Wednesday, September 23, 2009 by Chris Fox:
As noted in my recent blog post “Care and cleaning for composite decking”, mold may form on any surface where moisture is prevalent, there is heavy shading, or where pollen and debris are allowed to collect. With that said, I recommend using a conventional deck cleaner that contains sodium percarbonate—do not use bleach. I also recommend that you first contact the dealer you purchased your deck materials from and discuss their recommendation. In addition, there are spray on chemicals promoted to defend against mold on surfaces like composite decking, such as MoldOff and Wet and Forget.

Why are Latitudes Fascia boards unavailable where the decking is sold?
Thursday, November 5, 2009 by Chris Fox:
Latitudes deck fascia is available anywhere Latitudes composite decking is sold. However, it might only be sold as a special order item at your lumber dealer.
