Not suggested per international codes. You can temporarily jack up things with hydraulic jacks but the standard is to replace this temporary lift with a permanent in-place post of some sort.

I think it will work just fine, I haven't used the tool on diagonally laid boards but the way the tool is designed it should work just fine, I'm using this tool on a project right now and it's a real time saver, don't forget to buy the optional attachment for double joists if you have any on your project

I do not believe that you can use composite decking (as was my original hope) as the dimensions are just different enough. Perhaps someone handier could make it work?

Funny you should mention that, bc I bought this hoping to be able to sand a deck. It works wonderfully on single boards, like a railing, so it'd work great for that. That's really what it's designed for. For the actual deck though, this would take FOR EH VER, so save yourself the trouble and get a belt sander or rent a floor sander from home depot. You'll thank yourself. As for grit, for a deck I'd probably go with 80 grit sand paper

yes, you could use this. It would be more secure if you had a rack in front. if attaching to only the sides you need to make sure fastened tightly so as not to blow up.

yes, it won't sag, but I wouldn't put something terribly heavy on it, because it isn't a solid piece of wood, rather joined-together slabs of the different colors. Very sturdy and I've had many compliments on the color variations.

I used it for the same thing, however I taped ot to the balcony railing! You would think that sounds flimsy but it is still sticking.

It may sag a little, you have to tie it up tightly. I have had 3 of these now at various properties, I think they are really good.

Yes. That would be a good idea. I would suggest you use treated 4 X 4 around the perimeter with a couple cross members and marine plywood though

No it should not sag. I hung it on a fence with posts approx. that far apart. If for some reason you have a problem you could always run a wire across the top in the green to keep it straight.

I use a disposable paintbrush, but sure, it's thin enough that you could apply it that way. Probably a small foam roller would work well. I hope your deck isn't very large. This stuff is pricey for that application! My application was coating some steel and copper lines to be submerged in saltwater. Worked well for that.

I would not recommend it except where you can attach to a stud under the peg board. The Racor is designed for heavy items. I use it to hang an 80# ladder.I would estimate the load rating at 10-15# for peg board.

I use mine over a framework. I am sure there would always be a sag with this material.

I have honestly not even used mine yet, as my festival was canceled. But I heard the legs melt after excessive use. I would think it'd be ok for short term use on a deck

Probably if the deck has joists as most do you could mount the anchor bolts to the joists.

You could but I would recommend using anchors depending on what you are using this item for.

I truthfully do not think so but I would suggest taking a small piece of composite and applying the product to it before applying it to the deck and testing it . Good luck it can be used for many things but it can have adverse affects on some things keep it away from some of your metal utensils .
