Professional Grade Deck Protection

GacoShield allows homeowners to install high quality protection to their dimensional lumber deck. GacoShield provides lasting surface protection, plus a skid resistant surface that cleans up easily. One gallon of GacoShield will cover 100 square feet.

GacoShield is the same top-quality, durable acrylic coating used by decking professionals. It creates a fully adhered, durable membrane which expands and contracts along with your deck. GacoShield is perfect in hot or cold climates, because this high-quality acrylic coating does not soften in the heat or become brittle from cold.

GacoShield is specially formulated to protect and prolong the life of your wood deck. The unique chemistry of GacoShield allows the wood to breathe while protecting the wood as well. The result is an attractive and protective deck coating.
