Sherwin-Williams announces enhancements to several products in the SuperDeck Finishing System, the most comprehensive deck care finishing system available, to offer even greater durability and performance. The full SuperDeck line, featuring premium Duckback® technology, includes products for staining, sealing, stripping, cleaning and restoring decks. The innovative line also includes revolutionary infrared (IR) reflective technology stains, designed to help keep surfaces cool even when temperatures are hot. “Since its initial launch last year, SuperDeck has offered our customers long-lasting results, durability and adhesion for any deck-related project,” said Karl Schmitt, senior vice president of market research, color and design, Sherwin-Williams. “These enhancements will make it even easier to get great results for the upcoming outdoor season.” The new product enhancements in the SuperDeck line, available this spring, include: Enhanced SuperDeck Waterborne Semi-Transparent Stain The stain penetrates deeply to offer excellent ultraviolet (UV) protection and lasting defense against mildew and premature weathering. The enhanced, technologically advanced formula will deliver this premium performance for up to three years while also offering improved weathering, similar to an oil-based stain that wears away, rather than peeling and blistering at the end of its life cycle. Providing durable, opaque protection for exterior horizontal wood surfaces, this stain has also been enhanced for improved durability, offering even longer lasting protection against cracking, peeling and weathering. In addition, both the SuperDeck Semi-Transparent and Solid Color stains can be applied to damp wood allowing most projects to be finished in a single day for quick completion of the job. An enhanced version of the SuperDeck Deck & Dock Elastomeric Coating will also be available later in the spring. Ideal for smoothing and filling rough or damaged surfaces, this coating will adhere to weathered wood and concrete. The enhanced version can fill up to 1/8-inch wide cracks. The SuperDeck care system offers a clear sealer and semi-transparent, semi-solid and solid color stains — all in a waterborne formula, plus oil-based transparent and semi-transparent formulations. Also available are Log Home Oil & Waterborne Finishes, Exotic Hardwood Stain and Pressure Treated Wood Stain. SuperDeck can be applied on a variety of deck substrates including new, uncoated, pressure-treated, weathered lumber, cedar and redwood. It’s also available in a wide range of colors that complement Sherwin Williams’ popular WoodScapes® stains for vertical wood surfaces — allowing for a fully coordinated look.
