Great stripper for prepping. The brightener restores wood grain and color.

    Using the Stripper/Brightener on our pergola that is attached to our house.  So I need to hang plastic to protect the house from these chemicals?  House is painted with Sherwin Williams exterior paint 4 years ago.  Don't want to have to repaint the house.

      The stripper does not remove paint. Prewet and rinse over spray should be suffcient.

    My log cabin was originally treated with Outlast Q8 and I want to use your 1500 series product. I have a green standing seam metal roof. Will your cleaner/brightly harm the metal roof as it’s rinsed off?

      It should not but always test spot first.

    I used 1516 Rustic stain about three years ago and have a half-gallon left. Is there a shelf-life to worry about? Can I mix and use it with a new gallon of 1516?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 07/29/2022
      It has most likely gone bad as the shelf life is about 12 months after being opened.

    We have wrought iron balusters.  Do I need to do anything to protect them when using the RAD stripper and brightener on the railings?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 07/26/2022
      We would keep the products off them or at least test spot first to make sure there is not a reaction.

    My dogs pee on my cedar deck that I have stained with your 1500 product. I am about to strip and re-stain. Do you have any products or tips to protect against urine eating through the stain/finish?

    First - love TWP. I stripped sanded brightened my Deck railings and very happy with result. Builder used some terrible product that was a pain to get the thick peeling railing down to bare wood. Now maintenance should be easy. See first Picture. Thank you for all the useful posts.
    Second- my house was built and stained in 2017. The areas exposed to the elements need redo as it has weathered and is dry. Unfortunately, i do not know the product used. I believe the siding is pine and rough cut. I DREAD the process of strip and brighten ( sanding out of the question). Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated. See pictures of weathered front and o e in a protected portion of house. Thanks again

    My deck is right on the size limit of what this product will treat. Is there one of the items I am likely to need more of? Stripper? Brightener? This is an old deck with your stain on it and we are going to restain. :)

    I am getting ready to use Restore a Deck cleaner, then brightener.  The instructions seem to imply that once the cleaner is applied, then the brightener should be applied immediately afterward while it is still wet from the previous rinse.  My question is can I clean one day, then brighten the next?  How much time can elapse between applying the two products?

      Brighten the same day for best results.

    I want to work on my deck in stages, doing vertical surfaces first and horizontal surfaces later. Can I mix a portion of the stripper/brightener and gel packages, and do you provide ratios for partial mixes? Alternatively, how long can mixed solutions be stored, and what would the container and temp requirements be for storage?

      You can mix smaller batches of the stripper and brightener. It is on the containers as far as how to mix 1 gallon at a time. For the stripper and the brighener, they do not go bad or have a shelf life. The Cleaner does. Do not allow it to freeze.

    Hi, we used the Restore-A-Deck stripper and brightener on our wood porch to remove TWP #101. There is a big spot at the top that didn’t fully strip. Do we need to redo the process again? Or can we start staining with TWP semi solid cabin fever?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 06/07/2022
      You should be okay to apply over it.

        I’m now leaning towards TWP semi transparent dark walnut. Do you think that will cover it too?

    Similar to the previous question, I used 1500 clear on my new cedar deck last year.  The deck itself is pretty dirty but still beads when rained upon.  Would just the brightener/cleaner be enough as a pretreatment before resealing this year with 1500 clear again?

    Going to stain my deck again with TWP 1500.  Can the stripper be used as a replacement to your cleaner when restraining my deck or do I have to clean then strip?  The exposed areas have standard dirt and grime from rain, snow, and general use but no solid stains.

      You use either stripper of cleaner, not both. The stripper should only be used if you are stripping a stain.

    I used a transparent stain last year on a new deck and don't like the finish. Wanted to strip and use twp transparent finish. What's the best product to strip and prep for new finish?

      TWP Stains · 03/07/2022
      We would need to know the brand of the old stain and some pictures of the deck showing the stain posted here for proper prep help.

          Use the RAD stripper with both additives and pressure washing to remove. Brightener after.

            Great. Thank you. If I want the finished deck to look like wet wood, what DH you recommend for the stain?

              Honeytone in the 100 or 1500 Series.

    Ryan · 02/11/2022
    Hi I have two questions, I have a redwood deck that I stained 2 1/2 years ago with TWP 1500 Honeytone . I want to restain it with the same TWP honeytone, most of the deck the stain is still present. But in high traffic areas , and on top of railing the stain has faded away and the deck wood is slightly grayed. Do I need to strip the entire deck first to avoid darker / lighter spots where the stain faded and still exists? what should be my prep for the deck ? Cleaner /brighter ? Or stripper/ brightner . My next question is I built a Cedar fence about 2 months ago, gonna use the same color TWP stain as the deck. What should be the prep for that?

      Strip and brighten for an even appearance. Clean and brighten for the fence.

    After reading many reviews of others asking how to remove semi-solid stains, you always say RAD, etc. will not work and they must sand it off.  I’m ready to re-stain my boat dock (TWP 100 used on it about 7 years ago) and was thinking about using your Semi-Solid stain for better UV protection and longer life.  If your stripper products don’t work on Semi-Solid stains, how do I maintain it?  
    Finally, how long will the Semi-Solid Pro series product last?  I’m located in East Texas.   Thank you….

      RAD stripper works 95% of the time. It will not work to remove a solid stain. No stripper will remove a solid stain. The RAD Stripper will easily remove the TWP if needed. Redo every 2-3 years.

    Can I use the RAD Stripper & Brightener and/or Safe Strip on a dock over water?  It has faded TWP 100 Cedartone applied about 7 years ago. I definitely do not want to pollute the environment or damage any water life.  I would be applying with a backpack sprayer then power washing off.   Thank you…..
