I have read other post that say it is best to use stripper and brightener in the same day. What do you recommend if sanding needs to be done after stripping? Could you also recommend the best type of sander to use. All I have is a handheld orbital. Thank you.

We will reply to your comment shortlyIf you have to sand, do it between. Any sander should work.

We will reply to your comment shortlySo brighten before sanding? 👍 I am trying to remove Olympic Maximum semi transparent stain which I was told is not easy. I may need to sand quite a bit in only some areas and not other. It’s my understanding that sanded wood is considered new. Does it then need to be conditioned/brightened to accept product? If I end up with a surface that has new and old wood How many coats of semi transparent stain should I put on them. It say 1 for new or sanded wood and 2 for old 🤷🏻♀️. I don’t want it to blotch

We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, strip, sand if needed, and then brighten. One coat would be safer.

We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you for clarifying that! One last question please. If I can not completely remove all the old semi transparent stain would it be better to use your semi transparent or stain for good coverage?

We will reply to your comment shortlyDo you mean use Solid Stain if you cannot remove all of the old stain? Yes, it will give a better uniform appearance.
