If two QuickCap

™

boards are spliced, a joining board installed at the seams will minimize

the amount of visual end-to-end gap, Figure 3. This is done by separating the end-to-end

gapping. If splices are needed and the joining board method is not used, it is recommended

to stagger splices by two feet or more and use QuickCap

™

Fasteners ⁄" to 2" at each side of

the splice, Figure 4. QuickCap

™

boards expand and contract with temperature changes.

Follow the End Gapping Chart if any splices are needed to cover the surface of your old

deck, Figure 5.

SITE PREPARATION:

Check the condition of your current deck to make sure it is sound. If any part of the substructure or the surface is showing decay, make repairs prior

to installing the QuickCap

™

boards. Any raised or twisted boards should be fastened down with quality 3" premium deck screws, tightened until the

deck surface is level, Figure 1. If there are any areas where two deck boards come together end to end on top of a joist, the joist should be inspected

for structural stability (an additional joist should be added if needed). If using additional screws and joists is not successful in smoothing out the deck

surface, sand down any raised edges using an abrasive sanding disk attached to an angle grinder, Figure 2. Existing decking must be properly side

gapped to provide proper drainage. QuickCap is designed as a resurfacing material for existing wood decks. QuickCap

™

must be installed on top of

an existing wood deck, and can not be installed over concrete, open framing, plywood, or other non-wood decking material.
