    RH:
    Our deck is 2 years old (PTP). After the first 10 months, we used RAD Kit, then stained with TWP 100 - (Rustic 116) per TWP instructions. The color has faded after 14 months, so we want to re-stain with same TWP-100 (Rustic 116).

    Question: How do we prep the deck for the re-stain? Do we have to strip 1st coat of TWP 100 to re-stain with same TWP 100 color? If so, why?

    Thank you.

    No you do not need to use the RAD Stain Stripper for this scenario. Use our Gemini Restore Kit for the prep.

    I have a 14 year old Mahogany deck and have stained it every year with Cabots Mahogany Flame and switch to your TWP 1502 350VOC the last two years. I liked to strip the deck this year an apply 1502 again. What do you recommend? Process? How many coats of 1502?

    Strip with the Restore A Deck Stain Stripper and apply the brightener after. Just one coat is normal for Mahogany wood.

    My deck was previously coated with Behr Premium Solid Color Deck Stain. Will the Restore-A-Deck Stripper with a pump sprayer remove this?

    No it will not remove a solid stain. You will have to sand off a solid stain to remove.

    I have a 15 yr old pressure treated pine deck that has some parts that were stained with a semi-transparent Behr oil stain when the deck was new. Most of it was not stained at all or sealed in any way. Should I use the stripper only on the parts that were stained and the cleaner on the remainder or use the stripper on everything? I am especially wondering about the portion that is under a roof and therefore has received less weathering. Will the stripper be too harsh on wood that has never been stained or sealed?

    Stripper on all. Brighten when done.

    I have a deck that has white acrylic latex paint on the rails and dark gray latex paint on floor. The paint is peeling on the floor pretty badly. The white paint on the railing seems to be adhering to the wood but is very stained with black mildew. I would like to refinish.

    What would be the best preparation and finish application. I like the white solid color for the railing. I would like to go back with a lighter gray/taupe for the floor.

    Suggestions please.

    Our products cannot be applied over paints or solid stains. Our products also do not come in white or taupe colors.

    I have just replaced my deck with new cedar 2x6 boards and hired a guy to stain it. He used TWC 207 Butternut. It is very uneven and hasn't dried in over a week.Some areas are ok but the knots and hard part of the wood is still tacky. Can ou please recommend what is necessary to strip and reapply. After reading your product bulletins, It appears that the wrong choice was made or missapplied. Please advise.

    Not easy to strip off a newly applied stain. You will need to Restore A Deck Stripper and pressure washing to remove. In addtiona it may take more then one attempt of the stripping to remove it all. Make sure to use the RAD brightener on all the wood when done. Please read this about new wood:

    Can Restore-A-Deck stripper be removed with a power washer?

    thanks,
    Jake

    After applying the RAD Stripper it is best to pressure wash off the coating that is being removed. Once fully removed, use the RAD brightener to neutralize.

    Craig Harwood:
    I have a new pressure treated deck that is 4 months old now (wood was also kiln dried) What is recommended way to get the information stamps that are on the wood off? And do I need to use the stain stripper on new wood?

    Cleaners or stain strippers will not remove ink stamps. You would need to sand this off now, let the wood season for another month, then prep all with the Gemini Restore Kit.

    I am stripping Defy Epoxy Fortified Semi-Transparent stain (now called Defy Extreme)from my deck. Will RAD Stripper remove this stain?

    Also, the deck adjoins to the home with solid stain on wood siding. What prep do I need on this siding to protect it?

    It removes semi-transparent stains like the Defy but you will need to use a pressure washer as well. Use the Restore A Deck Brightener after to neutralize. It will not remove a solid stain uless the solid stain is peeling. Best to tarp off with plastic sheeting to be safe.
