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

    I applied 100 to new cedar wood 6 months ago. Intent was to keep wood in good shape over winter. I want to apply a semi transparent stain over it now. How do I prepare the wood to accept new stain.

    have two yr red wood deck. unfortunately, used sherwin williams superdeck/ducksback semi transparent oil stain recommended by their reg manager. the stain looked fine initially and several weeks later lifted off in some areas and appears to have run streaking the wood. second time handed sanded the deck to bare redwood and repeated process second time. same thing happened. third attempt sanded again and was furnished semi transparent oil base super deck by sherwin also with a deck cleaner and was assured it would work. one month later same thing happened. even their rep is clueless on what to do. nothing wrong with the redwood. want to use a TPW oil based product this time but being told by a third party that some kind of cleaner/stripper must be used because the oil from the superdeck must be removed first before applying your oil based stain. what do u recommend for the fourth time trying to stain a deck. shouldn't be the headache and costs it has run . also, what process, product or line do u recommend and I prefer a more intense color than your red barn sample.thanks

    Do you have to apply the stripper and brightener with a spray tool or can you roll it on and rinse off with pressure washer?

      Apply with a pump sprayer and pressure wash off.

    After applying the RAD stripper with a sprayer, do you scrub the deck wood?  Or just hose it off?The same question for the Brightener?

      TWP Stains · 05/05/2021
      You pressure wash it off after 15 minutes. The brightener you just rinse off after 15 minutes.

    Thanks for response. Behr product left splotchy areas where that product lifted from wood. Original plan is to use stripper all areas, use large commercial sander and the brightener. Will brightener raise wood fibers  requiring another light sanding? Thanks - John

      Never sand after applying the brightener. You want the grain to raise so the TWP can soak in deeper. When sanding prior, use no more that 60-80 grit.

    Central Oklahoma area: 1200 sqft PT deck previously stained with Behr product 2 yrs ago. Want to strip/prep and use TWP 120 Pecan. Somewhat confused regarding using Restore-A-Deck kit or should I use stripper and then brightener. PT wood has been down 3 yrs. Thanks - John

      We will need to see some pictures for prep help. You can upload them in the comment area. The Behr will need to be removed by stripping and or sanding.

    Based on what I've read, I'm assuming the Restore-a-Deck stripper does not harm the latex paint coated wood siding; is that correct?  Also, when applying TWP100 stain is it acceptable to use a short-napped, approximately 1" diameter roller? The stain seems to apply very evenly when I use that method.  Thanks.

    I stained my new cedar deck using TWP 100 one year ago and in some spots the stain has come off exposing the wood.  I didn't wait for a period of time before I stained it and I'm guessing that's why the stain has failed in some areas.  Should I use the stripper and brighten, then re-stain, or just use the cleaner and brightener?  If I need to strip, do I need the additives?  Thanks.

      Use the Strip and Brightener kit. No need for additives.

    3 years ago I stained a new yellow pine deck with TWP116. I need to reapply this year and I'm wondering if I need to strip and clean first or just clean and apply new stain. Some spots look as good as the day I first applied (mostly the vertical surfaces). The high traffic areas and spots that sit in full sun look like there's nothing left and water just soaks in when it rains. The pictures are of the worst looking areas.
    Thanks for the help.

      That would depend on the stain type? Do you have pictures?

    I have been asked to re-seal a deck that was sealed with your TWP 100 series 3 to 4 years ago. It is made of Ipe wood and is still in great condition. It is a block from the beach in San Diego, so it gets sun, moisture, and salty air exposure obviously. Would I need to use your stripper and the wood brightener, or just your cleaner to prep it before re-sealing it again? Also, how many coats do you recommend since it has already been sealed twice in the last 10 years.

      FYI, you cannot use the TWP 100 in CA, only the TWP 1500 Series. Prep with the Stripper/Brightener Kit.

      Just one coat of stain for IPE.

        Thanks for your quick response. Much appreciated. So even though it has TWP on it already, I would still need to strip it before cleaning? And if so, then that has to be done each and every time it is resealed every 2 to 3 years?

          With IPE you cannot have a buildup of TWP stain as the wood is too dense so best to always remove the prior coatings when reapplying.

    My weather forecast changed. I just finished stripping and brightening my entire porch. But now there is a forecast of rain for the next 5 days. How long can I leave the porch in this condition before I put the stain on, I know I need to have 2 days for it to dry.

      Yes, you can leave it until you can stain.

    I just stained 66' of a 130 ft 1 yr old fence with cedar tone top 100. It turned out oranger than we had hoped. We would like something a little more dark brown, maybe pecan or dark oak? If I want to restain the newly stained fence, how do I need to treat/strip it first?

    I have a cedar deck (In all shade from trees) that is partially covered. In the past I have waited 3 years, washed and scrubbed it with just water and a stiff brush and recoated it with more TWP cedartone. But the part that is under the roof cover would remain sticky and I’d have to wipe off excess and it would eventually dry. What should I use to clean this deck now so I can reapply more TWP cedartone.
    would the Restrore-a-deck kit, cleaner and brightener be enough? Should I also get the stripper to do just the part that’s covered or the entire deck?
    I will try to add pictures.

    I have a 30 year old cedar shadowbox fence that was last power washed and stained with TWP Cedartone about 8 years ago. I used to keep up with the cleaning and staining but have neglected it for years. Last fall I cleaned it with Scotts Outdoor Cleaner with OxiClean. The fence isn't in good shape but I'd like to improve the appearance of it and stain it again. I think it's too fragile for power washing, and it's not easy to get in-between the boards. I've read all of your advice for people with decks and am wondering what you recommend for my fence.

    Do we need the brightener and or cleaner?


    We have a 1300 sf 18 year old cedar deck. We just cleaned it with simple green deck and fence cleaner using a hose, brush, bucket, power washer.
    The deck is in Northern Wisconsin, with about 50% sunlight per day.

    Our plan is to use the 1500 rustic stain.

    We have one section where a would box sat, which has the old stain. What would be the best to clean that section.

    We will also be doing the railings, do we need to strip them first, or will the darker rustic stain cover them without issue.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Thank you

    Cedar deck, applied stripper and pressure washed then brightened the same day, let it dry, and wasn't happy with the results (said semi-transparent but was more of a semi-solid). I then ended up sanding off with 60 grit. I have some brightener left over, can I just reapply the brightener and let it dry, then stain in 48 hrs or should I use the Gemini cleaning/brightener instead, let it dry, then stain? Thanks!

    Can I use stripper than use cleaner and brightener like 5 days later or does it need to be done quick?Got rain in forecast so want to strip first get ahead.

      Strip and brighten on the same day. No need to use the cleaner if you are stripping.
