I have had to spray some areas with a light bleach solution for cleaning, etc. I try not to worry too much about it... outside bar, natural weathering, etc. I call it patina... my wife hates that word... :wink: The protected pieces do hold up better / retain their appearance. Coating, might work.... I'd weigh work versus benefit. The composite decking looks as good as the day I installed it. Hope this helps.... qh tiki.
