Sikkens has developed Cetol DEK and Rubbol DEK systems to ensure that your deck surface receives the maximum protection from these elements. Keeping your deck looking Simply Beautiful is a real challenge. A deck represents one of the most demanding areas to protect - particularly the deck's surface. The horizontal surface of a deck is exposed to a host of elements which are damaging to wood such as ultraviolet light, rain or snow which may remain on the surface for days or weeks; and, the often overlooked but equally damaging moisture under the deck.
