How Do I Apply Boracol How Do I Apply Boracol When it comes to the application of Boracol it’s best to carry this out on a dry day. We recommend washing the deck with clean water prior as the surface moisture can help the Boracol work its way into the pores of your lumber. You want the Boracol to fully dry on the day of treatment. If it rains during or straight after the application the product will be washed away from your wood. It doesn’t matter if it’s just drizzling on a day that follows. And while there may not be an immediate positive result, you’ll notice the green algae disappearing after 2-3 days and your deck will continue to improve over the next few weeks. Boracol can be applied in 5 easy steps First, wash it down and let the area dry for just about an hour so that all dirt or coatings can be removed from the flooring’s surface. Next, apply one layer of Boracol by brush, roller or spray until there is visible wetness on top but not running off into other areas. Allow this first layer to dry out until just damp. Apply another single-layer covering with Boracol until refusal (those spots where you cannot see any liquid surfaces). For best results use 4 – 6 sq meters per litre.
