We will reply to your comment shortly· 09/21/2018Have 1000 ft2 22-year old PT deck. Was RAD prepped and stained with Armstrong Clark semi transparent dark brown stain in 2015. Couldn't retreat with RAD 1 and 2 plus same stain as shady end of deck was heavy with green mold and mildew.
So, decided to strip, brighten and stain all with RAD (light walnut). Have stripped all and brightened just a couple hundred ft2. Periodic rain is going to delay staining a bit. Wood is still fairly wet, which acounts for some of the darkness variation iin pics.
Have seen references to "furring" in your replies. Is this what pictures of the more open grain are showing and should I sand those boards with 60-80 grit? Would that be sand, rinse and brighten? Also, would light use of an orbital sander be OK or should I stick with a sanding block?
IF you can reply quickly I'd be very greateful.
Many thanks,

We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/15/2018I have a huge tigerwood deck. It has crd sikkens stain on it. I have got everything off the railings with is stripper. I am having some trouble getting the stain off the floor. There are someboards where it is not coming completely out and when I scrub more it causes some maeks. see the picture. Will these mark show up when stain with restore a deck natural? Should I leave the stain that will not come off? I dont want to damage the boards. Or should I just sand the floor?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/15/2018Are you pressure washing after applying the stripper? Make sure that you brighten the wood after all the stripping is done.
Try to remove as much as possible. It seems that most is removed in the picture. The brightener should help as well to even out the appearance some.-
We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/15/2018I am power washing and brightening while it is still wet. It is different boards which the stain remains. The stain will just not come off these particular boards even with scrubbing. I will send a picture of the board.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/15/2018Here are the photos. It tends to be the weaker boards thathat it wont come out of. That is why I am wondering if I should sand the floor instead because I dont want to damage the boards.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 07/26/2018Three month follow up. I was very skeptical using a water based stain. My friend, an executive from SW, was talking trash about doing so. I’ve been using TWP, and the cedar tone turns blackish every year. Plus it’s a pain to apply, and you need 3 dry days in a row.
I stripped my deck and posted the finished photo in April. I’m posting it again today.
Here’s my April work timeline. I pulled the pressure washer out of the shed at 10 am. Stripped and neutralized twice each to get to bare wood. Was a warm day, southerly exposure. I let the deck dry 90 minutes. Then stained it. Walked on the deck at 3PM same day.
Full southern exposure, deck take a heat beating. Still looks like identical to April application. Rained all night so I’m posting the water bead up at 4 months! I’ll follow up April 2019.
Move over oil stain, there’s a new sherif in town! -
We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/30/2018I power washed the deck yesterday and it had 6 year old Behr solid deck stain on it (it peeled and looked awful after a year, but we're finally getting around to doing our deck again). My husband said to use a stripper first, then a belt sander (we'd have to buy), then brightener. Is that the right order? Even more important, can we skip the sanding? Will your stripper take it all off? We have 450 sq feet of deck, plus railings (OMG the sanding of that! yikes!). I've attached photos of some of the slabs of deck and what it looks like after power washing.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/17/2018Olympic Max Deep clean only absorbed into my 15 year old deck - see photo. It had semi transparent grey stain at one point. How/which of your prep products should I use?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/14/2018We applied Cabot Semi Solid Stain to deck 4 years ago.Big mistake as it began to come off immediately on horizontal surfaces (it's fine on vertical).
Will your stain remover work on getting this product off before we use a Semi Transparent stain next time? I just tried hand sanding a small area and the stain comes off quite easily.-

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/14/2018You can see where the rain and sun don't hit, the stain has remained OK.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/07/2018Power sanded (12x18 vibrating) older PTP deck with SW acrylic semi-trans stain. Most came up with 36 followed with 60 grit paper but there are still spots that didn't. I'm afraid of these becoming ugly shiny blotches when following with RAD stain, so will the RAD stripper remove these spots without blotching surrounding wood that is "clean"? Spot sanding is another option but as I still need to strip verticals I thought I spot treating with the stripper may work without taking more material off as long as it won't create problems with the surrounding "clean" wood. Will brighten everything with RAD brightener once verticals are stripped.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/07/2018Might be best to just sand them off so it is evenly sanded when done.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/08/2018I would agree...but my 60 year old back & knees might take a little more convincing! 600sf PTP deck is 20 years old, so this is probably the last restoration before I replace. Can you tell me if stripper will affect surrounding “clean” wood in a negative way? I’m not so worried about getting everything even as old PTP is far from even at this point. Photo attached.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 05/11/2018Hello. about 3 summers ago, I stained our deck with semi-transparent Thompson's water proofing stain. It didn't take long for it to start looking bad (not sure if it was a bad application or bad product). I've used another deck stripper and sanding with decent results. Would your deck stripper have better results? Especially between the slats where sanding doesn't work well? Thank You!

We will reply to your comment shortly· 05/04/2018GM, last year we stained our deck with Sherwin Williams water born Semi Transparent water base stain (cedar). Over the winter in the high traffic areas the stain lifted down to bare wood. My husband power washed the entire deck which easly lifted additional stain. Not happy with that he belt sanded down to the attached which is smooth and shows where stain penetrated and still remains. We are not happy with this product as that was the second time in 4 years we have had to redo. Would like to use your highly rated products. Can we stain over this, need to strip, etc. Please let me know what steps we need to take next. Thank you Colleen Freel
