I’ve used Choicedek from Lowes to replace the deckboards on my front porch which has a southwestern exposure (lots of hot sun) with no roof. The majority of our rain comes from that direction so it’s pretty wet as well. I was surprised by how much the color changed so if it says gray, it will eventually be gray regardless of what color it is when you start.

probably not a bad thing considering a lighter board will retain less heat.What about the material degrading(flaking?)
