Complaint: 21971669
I am rejecting this response because:
My deck was new wood that was put down. It hasn't had anything on it until this product, 30 Seconds was put on it to clean it before putting a sealant on it. It has nothing to do with the manufacturers of the wood. I should be paid for my labor trying to get that product off. I worked hard. I should've read some of the bad reviews on it. I'm not the only one who has had trouble. I do deserve what I am suggesting! I have already submitted the photos.Sincerely,

I am rejecting this response because:
#1, I did follow directions to the tee. Yes, Wal-Mart did refund my $ of 8.88 per bottle. Needless to say, I kept my water hose right with me. After my whole deck looked like that, I even scrubbed it with a brush, pressure washed it, then hand sanded it & it still looks terrible! I knew it wasn't coming off, so I went ahead & put ********* water seal on it. I don't recall any directions what to do if that stuff doesn't come off! I have read some pretty bad reviews too. I am not satisfied with all these instructions you give me to scrub some more! It shouldn't have looked like this to begin with!! In case you didn't see the pictures, I can resend them.
Sincerely,
