Default UltraDeck QuickCap from Menard's

Looking to refurbish an old deck. Deck is 30+ years old built entirely
of pressure-treated 2x lumber. Despite our (semig) best efforts it
looks like hell with checking, some warping and popped nails. Overall,
deck is quite sound, just looks awful.

As only a handful of deck boards need replacement to provide a solid,
flat surface, I'm looking seriously at the composite QuickCap system
from Menard's. (manufactured by UltraDeck or Midwest Manufacturing, Inc.)

Seems to be a pretty nice system with the color all the way through it
and, having bought a small amount to "test" for "how it lays atop the
old decking" I think it likely will do the trick.

What I am wondering about is what sort of experience others have had
with this specific product or similar "capping" systems from any other
manufacturers?

I know that it will weather but does it still look decent after...

Any one out there with some information? Warnings? Cautions? Suggestions?
