Amazing Paint

Restored an old deck on my 1920s home. It looked Ike’s absolutely amazing after just one coat of paint. Everyone thought I had a new deck installed.

Excellent deck coverage

3 years ago
I bought this product and applied it last spring, though I had difficulty finding painting days when it hadn't rained in the previous 24 hours and rain wasn't forecast for the following 24 hours. We followed directions, cleaning and washing the deck and letting it completely dry first. Then we applied two coats within two weeks. Vertical ballisters only needed one coat. The deck is beautiful and continues to please us. The dogs have not damaged it in spite of rough play and sharp toenails. We are extremely pleased. Also, the clerk who sold us this paint used it two years ago and told us that it "still looks like new."

Yes, I recommend this product.

Hello, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that our DeckOver did not provide the longevity you expected. Our Advanced DeckOver has a 1-year warranty, but it's not uncommon for the coating to surpass that. To fix the issue, I recommend sanding the surface to remove any loose coating. If your surface is wood, I recommend using our All-In-One Wood Cleaner to ensure adhesion. If you're working with concrete, etch any bare areas smoother than 150-grit sandpaper. Once clean and dry, touch up the bare spots and apply a thin recoat if needed for uniformity. I've reached out to you via email to learn more about your project and assist. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi there, thank you for your review. I'm very sorry to hear that you did not get the lifespan you expected out of our Advanced DeckOver. That is not the experience we want for our customers, and I can understand your disappointment. To fix the issue, I recommend removing the loose coating before cleaning the surface with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner. Once dry, touch up the affected areas and recoat the surface if needed for uniformity. Alternatively, since it sounds like you were looking for a coating with a longer lifespan, I recommend upgrading to our Solid Color Waterproofing Wood Stain. After removing the loose coating and making sure the surfaces are clean and dry, apply two coats following the recommended spread rate. While our DeckOver provides a 1-year warranty, our Solid Color Stain offers a 5-year lifespan for horizontal surfaces and 15 years for vertical. I've reached out to you via email to learn more about your project and assist you with this further. Thank you again for sharing your experience and feedback with us. I hope to hear from you soon!

Great on our deck

3 years ago
Used this product on the flooring of our deck and porch.it provides great traction and is especially appreciated on the ramp. We made one entrance to the front door a ramp with short steps on the other side of the landing for the wonderfully “abeled”. Even as we are both steady on our feet. On damp days the texture sure comes in handy and we are very happy it was recommended to us. Thank you for making the product. Two ole broads from Florida

made my decks new again !

Its been 3 YEARS since I redid my decks, both pool deck and upper decks. Its extremely durable , looks beautiful and saved my decks from deteriorating any further. Many people who used this did NOT properly prep their decks. I sanded all decks with my belt sanders to bare wood, and that is how it should be done. No deck treatment works better than this.

Yes, I recommend this product.

It peels off!

4 years ago
We bought deck over several years ago and it started to peel up right away. Contacted Behr and they replaced everything, even paid for the rental on the sander. Sanded it down to the dear wood and started all over again. It's peeling up AGAIN! My husband and I who are seniors are spending our 4th of July weekend and several more weekends to come sanding and scraping this deal up. I will never have another drop of Behr products in my house again.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Awful product!

4 years ago
I bought 2 gallons to coat my deck. The first can went on well! I started with a roller but quickly realized that a paint brush is better. The 2nd gallon was so thick I couldn’t apply it at all, so I ran to the Home Depot to exchange it since I was in the middle of my project. They shook the new can for 8 mins and it was no different. Maybe it’s a bad batch? But now I’m halfway through my project and stuck. I’m off to a different Home Depot in a different city to see if I can get another can that’s better. I don’t recommend this at all. What started out as a fun project is now turning into a nightmare, and I’m forced to finish. And yes I prepped with the behr deck wash and a scrub brush.

Terrible product!

4 years ago
Purchased 3 cans of the textured deck over to apply to brand new wood decking. The paint does NOT apply well and flings all over the place so do it in an area you don’t care to get paint all over the place. Once everything was done we kept off of the deck for 4 days to ensure it would be completely dry. Once we started walking on it, the paint grabs onto ANY dirt and it almost stains it. We have tried everything to get the staining and dirt off and nothing works. This product was a complete waste of money, especially since it does not cover anywhere NEAR the amount of square footage it claims to.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Joanna, Behr Customer Care
Hi TayAdcock, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear you ran into issues with your Textured Advanced DeckOver. Our DeckOver is thicker than other coatings, so it will cover less square footage than our other wooden products. To ensure proper consistency during your application, we'd recommend stirring the product for 3-5 minutes before using it and intermittently during your application. To clean your deck, we'd suggest using our All-In-One Wood Cleaner. If there are still visible stains or marks on the surface, we'd recommend applying a coat of our Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer to bring down some of the texture on the surface (which can grab and retain more dirt than smoother coatings) and cover any leftover visible imperfections. Customer satisfaction is important to us. So, we've reached out to you directly to assist you further. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend.

Best Deck Cover for your aged wood ever!

4 years ago
Our 1st experience was to use deckover on a cabin in Colorado. Not knowing the extreme weather we weren't sure how it would last but after several years this product has held up through all weather conditions. It is absolutely stunning and the best match color for the cabin. Last summer we decided to use the sand color for our deck at the beach and once again best decision we ever made to cover fairly new wood, but the coverage was excellent. Because of its durability and how it turns out we will do you doing our backyard deck next!

Yes, I recommend this product.
