Hi all I am just about to start revamping a poor neglected deck that came with the house I recently purchased. It has been suggested to me that I use Flood PowerLift as part of the deck was stained by the previous owner with cabots deck stain that is now wearing badly and the rest remained untreated. I have been to 3 bunnings and a mitre 10 in Brisbane </ST1:pand none of them had any. One of the 3 bunnings had a shelf tag for it but the guy I talked to had no clue as to what I was asking for. Does anyone know a shop that carries powerlift in brissy.
Would anyone be able to recommend any other product that does a similar job and maybe not so highly priced as it is becoming a big job just to track down a product that is not very cheap to start with ($45 at bunnings for 4L if it were in stock) and their website claims that will do 15-25 m<SUP>2</SUP> max I have 50 m<SUP>2</SUP> to do.

Might be best to have it sanded and then re-coated.

That way you completely remove the existing oil, along with getting the the un-treated sections brought up to the same colour.

Any decent paint store should be able to help you, or you could call Flood Australia (1800-226-113). Alternatively their website (http://www.floodaustralia.net/) has a stockist locator - enter your postcode and off you go. In NSW, I use our local Amazing Paints outlet. They reckon Flood are good but pricey - you get what you pay for? Incidentally, they were also cheaper than Bunnies...

I actually did ring the listed brisbane store from the Flood site today and only of them actually had 1 bottle in stock and it was $10 more than bunnies ($56 for 4L). Apparently in QLD it cost a lot more than you are getting it in NSW.
