Last time we started to discuss the Prestige 5 layer deck coating system, with a our rationale and helpful summary of the cement base coat and fiberglass steps. Let’s continue with layer 3…

SKIM COAT-Layer 3. Once the fiberglass layer has slow dried for maximum impenetrability (just like our friends who make us quality surfboards and boasts); we are ready to apply layer three: the cement skim coat. The skim coat serves much the same purpose as the initial cement layer, but it is only half the material as layer 1. Everyone wants an even and flat surface on their deck coating, so we seal the fiberglass layer with the double strength of two “sandwiching” cement layers.

TEXTURE-Layer 4. When we say we “Everyone wants an even and flat surface,” we by no means are referring to a slippery deck coating! Water + smooth deck= slipping = potential for injury. Not good. The team at Prestige has a balanced goal of waterproof walkway, aesthetic appeal, and safe stepping.

So, before the paint we apply another cement coat! This coat produces both an attractive pattern and doubles as a slip deterrent. This is where the experience and creativity of our team is again utilized, as we insure full coverage and artistic flair. Our deck coating is even and flat textured, but never smooth.

PAINT-Layer 5. At Prestige we realize that the most important step in this process is the finished product. All of the work that goes underneath this last layer will never be seen, so we take great pains to offer a variety of custom colors that will match your surrounding home environment. Function and flair are always in the forefront of our minds! Functionally this layer gives the deck coating a final watertight seal. Your choice of custom color adds a personal touch of flair to your home and our service.

Prestige wants your deck to last! Prestige wants your deck dry! Prestige wants your deck beautiful! From the double reinforced foundation to our 5 layer deck coating system, you can expect a superior product and service from Prestige Deck Coating, OC’s premier choice for all your deck restoration and waterproofing needs!
