I've pressure washed the deck and am about to put down Penofin, but I
wonder if people belt-sand the surface first to make it smoother? I
have an 11-month old and she could crawl on the deck if it were less
splintery.

Thanks!

Any wood deck gets a little splintery - replace with Trex or another composite
decking immediately if this is really and important concern for you.

Otherwise, you do what the rest of the world does - keep baby off until she can
walk in shoes.
