Seamless floor problem
Put a geck up 5years ago and used Scion, a Hardy product.
Had the deck coated with a seamless product..|Epoxy, flakes, polyurethane topping of 2 coats.
The bloke did a lousy job but the product has held up well. I managed to spill some Cabots natural decking oil in a few spots
and tried to clean it off with acetone. Some came off very well but one area has been eaten a little by the acetone, SWMBO not happy!
The whole deck needs to be re-coated because of the original poor job. I am wondering if a good quality paving paint will do the job and
if so wht surface preparation do I carry out as the current finish is, as I said, polyurethane.
Thanks in advance for your wise replies.

Ring the technical dept for the manufacturer of the paving paint you choose and be guided by their advice
The person who never made a mistake never made anything

I spent some time today with a couple of knowledgible paint people.
Part of my problem is that I have no idea of what the finishing coat brand and type is, apart from the fact that it is Polyurethane.
However, the general opinion of all I have spoken to is that the surface will need to be ground back to get rid of the polyurethane coating.
Costings on doing that range from $2500 to $3500!! Not happy Jan!!.

well, at that sort of cost, you could always try spilling a bit more acetone.
