Hi /diy/
I was moving out of a place with a roof deck made of composite wood (rental). The movers didnt lift a table enough and now there is a midlevel indentation/scratch left in the middle of the deck. Like i had done with some other more cosmetic I used a hard bristle brush and an extra fine sanding sponge to even out the grains again and limit the the appearance of the scratch. I had done this before and while there was some discoloration (the deck is faded this patch is not) from where i feathered it all even out overtime. This issue is- i dont really have any time right now to let the color even out natrually and its been cloudly all day with no rain (which is the worst weather for this).

does anyone know a good way to speed up the process of getting everything back to even? im debating taking a little potting soil and kicking it into the area.

any tips would really help.

thanks!

i would honestly leave it alone op, anything you do is just going to make it worse.
even composite decking outside will weather and wear, its not reasonable to expect it to stay fucking spotless for its whole life.
quite often it's obvious to you because you know its there too, i doubt anyone else will notice much less suspect anything outside of normal wear

>quite often it's obvious to you because you know its there

this is probably accurate. sadly my mother passed on her neuroticism to me and it will keep me up at night for the next 4 months.

i was debating just getting a good outdoor push broom and doing the whole deck.

also thanks and i will most likely leave it alone.

you could just paint/refinish the whole thing if you want

some trendy people like painting their deck a vibrant color instead of keeping it in a natural tone

Landlord here. It's outdoor decking, I wouldn't care if one of my tenants scratched theirs.
