Rust damage , if fresh grass stick to the mower deck and isn't removed right
away it will stay forever and is very acidic and will rust the deck , as I
said earlier , got special paint from Summit Racing , stuff is like iron and
holds up well but I have to get the grass off quickly or it is solid , used
a hose last year and it worked great , I just picked up a wash fittings from
Cub today and going to install it shortly , thanks for the interest , Phil

Hello
I have a Cub Cadet 1527 Mower Tractor with a 42 in. deck , have had
the usual problem with grass sticking to the underside of the deck and
the damage that goes with this problem , I had the deck sand-blasted a
year ago and painted it with a special very tough paint that I got from
Summit Racing , I ran a hose under the deck with the mower running and it
really cleaned the fresh grass off the deck , took the deck off last fall
for maint. and it looks very good , have heard all kind of ways to wash a
deck , wonder if anybody has added a fitting to the deck or buried a
right angle hose in the ground to spray up , getting down on the ground
with a water hose isn't the best .
Thanks

What kind of damage are you talking about. My deck is 20 years old and
works fine, just put new bearings in the three spindles and scraped off
all the old grass. What damage are you talking about? Normal wear?
