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

    Will Deck Stain stripper take off 3 year old Thompsons Water Seal? There are still sections that have some color, and some vertical sections that still bead water.

      TWP Stains · 09/18/2018
      Yes, it should. Is it the clear water seal or the stain? The stain is harder to remove.

    Used stripper and brightener on a very large deck. What is the best procedure for sanding? Will rain damage my efforts? Do I rinse with water after sanding, or sweep the area before staining?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 08/28/2018
      Why are you sanding? No need to. Rain will not harm the prep.

        Deck is COVERED with “fur”. I’m planned on doing a light sand to remove the fur and stain. While I continue the process on the whole deck, will the wood pores close with time or exposure to rain? Is there anything I should do when I’m ready to stain the whole deck?

          TWP Stains · 08/28/2018
          Okay. Use a floor buffer with a sanding pad, not sanding paper. Much easier to remove it this way and leaves the wood porous. Wood pores will not close due to weather but over sanding can create this problem if you sand too fine.

    I used stripper and brightener on cedar deck. Product worked great but has revealed a stain that I believe may be petroleum based. Any suggestions to minimize the stain?

          Looks like some kind of grease or wax spill. That is deep in the wood grain and cannot be removed with any prep product.

    I plan on using a pump sprayer to apply the TWP cleaner and then rinse it with a pressure washer to remove it and then use a pump sprayer to apply the TWP brightner and then rinse with a hose to remove it.

    I assume I can (1) let the cleaner dry completely before I remove it with the pressure washer and then (2) let the brightner dry completely before I remove it with the hose.


    Need to ask to please let me know if both of my assumptions are correct.

    Thanks in advance.

      You cannot let the cleaner or brightener dry. The cleaner will also need to be pressure washed, not rinsed off.

    I used California Redwood 1500 stain five years ago and plan on using the same stain again. After using the Gemini Cleaner and Brightner, parts of the fence still has stain on it from five years ago. Do I have to remove this old stain beforehand or use a stripper to remove it before staining? Thanks!

      Sorry but no, deck stain strippers will not remove solid stains.

    When to apply RAD Brightener... I have applied RAD Stripper(Friday 5/25/18 very happy with it), and now in the process of sanding a 900 sq foot by hand which will take me about another week to finish doing it solo. Question I have is when should I apply the Brightener, or do I have to apply another cleaner and then the brightener after sanding, which will be about 14 days after I stripped the deck..


    Thanks

      Just apply the brightener after the sanding and light pressure rinse.

    Are you able to just spray this on and power wash it off? Does it harm window and metal frames?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 04/29/2018
      Yes but you will need to be perpendicular to the wood and about 6-10 inches away. Might want to rent a lift as ladders and pressure washers with slippery soap is not a good idea.

      Hard to say for certain on the windows. 99% of the time there are no issues.

      Use the RAD Stripper and pressure washing to remove. Brighten all after.

    Amado · 04/10/2018
    I plan on using TWP 1516 on a 1 year old deck. Currently the deck has Defy Extreme on it, and after a year, it has faded and lost its water repellent qualities. Should I use the stripper or the cleaner to remove it, before applying the TWP stain?

    Thanks,
    Amado

    After a year of seasoning, I plan to apply TWP to two buildings which are sided with steel on top and pressure treated wood on the bottom. Two questions:

    1. Would you recommend using the RAD Stripper this time, or just the RAD Brightener?
    2. Is there any risk of corroding the steel with the RAD products?

      Hello, I am not seeing any natural/unstained wood in your picture. Looks painted green and taupe. TWP can only be applied to unstained/not painted wood. Please elaborate as to where you plan on applying and the wood current condition.
      • We will reply to your comment shortly
        Ted Friedl · 02/15/2018
        The pressure treated wood is on the bottom half of the barn sides and rear, and also the bottom sides and rear of the small run-in building behind it. This wood is obscured a bit by the paddock fence (which will also receive TWP this year!) so I'm posting a photo of the run-in before it was placed in the paddock. Thanks!

    I'm presuming the wood brightener is the same product that comes with the stripper pkg and the Gemini wood cleaner pkg. I have an enclosed deck that's partially stained. I'm guessing to re-stain the deck I should do the following:

    Strip the stained areas using the stripper

    Apply wood cleaner to the unstained areas

    Apply wood brightener to the entire deck to neutralize the wood in prep for restaining


    Is this the correct procedure or would you recommend a different approach?


    Thanks,
    Dave

      On vertical wood like a fence, the TWP should last 3-6 years depending on the UV exposure.

    We applied two coatings of Cabot from Lowe's on our Cedar fence and would like to remove and add TWP to make our fence last for years
    What is the best way to remove ? use the stripper with a sprayer first or add stripper with pressure washer for best results
    And how long before applying TWP 1500 after ?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 12/12/2017
      Apply the RAD Stripper with a pump sprayer and then pressure wash off. Apply the wood brightener to neutralize when done. Wait about 48 hours after the prep.

    We have a home that the previous owners coated with Cabot. I believe the Cabot is more than 10 years old so we plan to strip the wood and apply TWP 1500. I noticed in a previous question the restore a deck stripper/brightener wouldn't work with a different brand. Will it work o strip the Cabot?

      Will the stripper/brightener remove the Cabot Stain ? I got from Lowe's
      I have put two coatings of cabot in two years on our new cedar fence and want to remove and use TWP

      The RAD stripper works very well to remove other brands. What type of stain is the Cabot? Post a picture if you can.

    george Penick:
    My Flood UV5 has been on the house about 6 yrs. Its lost it look-do you think it would still be an issue to cover it with your oil base 100 or 1500 after a bleaching/cleaning? PS; I've read that the 100 will last longer than your 1500. Comments please!

    TWP cannot be applied over a stain of a different brand so the Flood will need to be removed. The TWP 100 and the 1500 will last about the same for a house.
