- All defective coatings should be completely removed
- Any grey denatured exposed timber surfaces must be thoroughly sanded back to clean, bright timber
- Organic growths must be removed and infected surfaces should be treated with a suitable fungicidal solution
- Remaining sound surfaces should be cleaned using a warm water and mild detergent and rinsed thoroughly with clean water
