I've cleaned, stripped, and brightened twice with RAD and still seeing some spots with the old stain - TWP Pecan. We'll be staining with TWP 116. Should this be stripped again or sanded prior to staining ?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 09/09/2019We purchased a house with deck that needs some work. I don’t know if it is a solid stain or paint that is on there now. Can you tell me what you think and if this product would work on it. Pictures attached.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 07/07/2019Previously had Behr "Semi-transparent" in Chocolate (which seems a lot more opaque than most other semi-transparent stains?). The Behr was wearing and peeling.
I've done 3 full rounds of stripping and power washing with RAD stripper + both boosters, followed by brightening. This got "most"--but not all-- of the Behr stain off. I just can't bare to do any more prep at this point (sanding this is out), but would prefer to avoid a completely-solid stain covering if there's something that will work.
What's going to get the best results (with easy reapplication of future coats), despite the little bit of lingering old stain remaining? I had hoped the RAD stripper would prep this well enough to be able to use TWP, but it seems like the semi-transparent oil-based might not provide good "coverage" of the lingering Behr?
What do you recommend that I should stain with at this point? (North Carolina, full sun, pine) -

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/13/2019In one area on a teak table, I accidentally let some of the stripper dry. It had both additives in it. I have sanded and brightened the table, but when it is dry, I can still see an area of darkened wood. Anything I can do? I do plan to seal the table with semco in honey, will it show when finished?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 04/15/2019Hi. We just used a different stripper on our IPE deck and there are still areas that have quite a bit of stain left. Those areas were not exposed to the sun, so the stain was still mostly in tact. Looking to purchase RAD stripper and brightener for the next round. Do you have any tips or recommendations for removing stain from IPE? Is it helpful to use a brush when applying the stripper? Was thinking about possibly sanding, but not sure you're supposed to sand IPE. Not sure what stain the contractors used a few years ago, but it's a mahogany color. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

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!
