1 RAD Stripper and 1 RAD Brightener

Coverage: 500-1000 sq. feet per kit. Each Kit Makes 5 Gallons of Stain Stripper and 5 Gallons of Wood Brightener

Restore-A-Deck Stain Stripper is the only concentrated powdered wood stain stripper that is specifically designed to be injected through a pressure washer. RAD Stripper may also be applied using a garden type sprayer.

The R-A-D Stain Remover, when injected using a pressure washer, can remove penetrating transparent stains as well as semi-transparent wood coatings.

When RAD Wood Stain Stripper is applied using a pump-up sprayer, it is twice as potent and able to remove most transparent, semi-transparent and even semi-solid wood stains. It is also excellent for getting rid of failed semi-transparent acrylic stains. Coverage rates when applied with a pump sprayer are 100-200 sq. ft per gallon.

After using Restore-A-Deck Injectable Stain Stripper, the wood needs to be neutralized with the RAD Step 2 Brightener.

    Hi, cedar siding that was finished with some type of poly - satin to semi-gloss finish. Sun getting to it. I tried a spar urethane (Second panel). Shade sides are OK. A stripper takes off some of the finish but a lot of work. May require sanding as well. Any thoughts on how best to proceed and your recommended products? Thanks, Stephen

      You will need to sand to remove this type of coating. Once removed, you will be able to use the AC in any color you would like.

    I am refinishing my small deck myself, and will hire someone to do a large deck at the end of the season. Will the leftover stripper and brightener powder keep for a few months between jobs? It is very humid in our barn and garage. Should I store leftovers in a lidded bucket?

      Store inside where there is no humidity and you will be good.

    Replaced decayed horizontal deck boards with pine, but kept old stained vertical boards and rails. Sanding is removing "most" products from the rails. Do I need to use brightener or stripper? Or both? Over all or old wood only? Do you recommend the semi-solid stain then for more even coverage, so both old and new match? Will the semi-transparent look splotchy? I'm in Indiana, so have the range from 100* hard sun to -5* with ice. Thank you!

    I bought my house five years ago which has a covered front porch with groove and tongue mahogany flooring. I do not know what stain was previously used. There is greying on the flooring and I am only now restaining the porch. Can you tell me what the best process would be to restain my porch? Should I use the RAD stripper and brightener and then follow with a hardwood stain? Thank you!

    Help!
    I have a large deck and structure (pressure treated pine), pine planter boxes (12X4 - 24" high) and landscape timbers, all previously treated with Behr Premium SemiTransparent Oil based stain. All are 5 years old, initally stained 4.5 years ago. Deck surface was restained 2 years ago. I have currently totally sanded the deck surface removing all stain, and sanded all other surfaces well (including posts, stair risers and timbers - but not down to the wood - prior stain remains). Not happy with the Behr (peeling, fading) What process must I still go through for prepping? (Tired - so tired) I will happily put in the effort to achieve a good result with some longevity. My deck is in a sunny location, until oak leaves leaf out, then total shade all summer. No mold / mildew. Oak sap during the summer which requires constant hosing. I am in Southern Wisconsin. Thank you!

      Hello, you must remove all of the Behr. Continue to sand and or strip to remove the rest.

    I have cedar benches that have a water based stain applied. This has failed and is flaking off. Can I remove the flaking stain then use your oil based stain over the remaining water based stained wood?

      Hi Dennis, you have to remove all of the water based stain to be able to switch brands to the AC.

    Just used Restore-A-Deck yesterday on our non-stained deck that was installed last spring. The plan was to do the brightener tonight. However, I noticed some furring on the wood. Do I need to sand, and if I do, should I sand then brighten, or brighten then sand?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      Administrator · 04/30/2018
      If you need to sand, sand first and then brighten the wood. FYI, typically when you apply the stain it will darken the wood based on the color you choose and the "furring" will not show.

        Lezlie · 04/30/2018
        OK, I just realized that I made a really dumb move and prepped with the stripper/brightener kit instead of the cleaner/brightener kit. Do I need to go back and use the cleaner, or am I ok to stain?
        • We will reply to your comment shortly
          Administrator · 04/30/2018
          That is most likely why it furred. Should okay to stain though.

    I have a 5 year old tigerwood deck. About 3 years ago a brown stain was put on it. I want to restore it to the natural
    tigerwood color. Will the Restore-a-Deck work or do you have any other suggestions?

    Can someone explain how injecting the stripper through the power washer can be effective...seems like the water under pressure would move both the stripper and cleaning water at high speed, so how can injecting the stripper be any more effective than just power washing it?

    Pump spraying to apply the stripper and pressure washing to remove is the most effective way. If it is an easy strip, you can inject on instead of pump sprayer.

    Can I use the Brightner immediately following stripping, or is there a time delay between stripping and application of Brightner?

    right after stripping is done.

    I have a painted redwood deck in bright sun during the day. It was painted right before we purchased about two years ago and is already chipping and looking really bad. I am considering sanding the paint off and staining it with woodland brown, that i used for our fence already, instead considering the heat and cold /snow in the winter that it might be easier to maintain and look better. Is that realistic and what would be my steps?

    The only way to remove the paint is to sand. After sanding, clean and brighten all the wood. The paint must be fully removed before using the Armstrong Clark.

    Will the stripper affect my black aluminum spindles?

    99% of the time it will not but always best to test first as there are 100s of different types of spindles and they are not all made the same.

    Preparing to replace my existing wood deck and railing with new Pressure Treated Southern Yellow Pine:
    -Would you suggest waiting until spring to stain the new wood (I live in Indiana) so the wood can dry?
    -Do you suggest using cleaner/brightener and/or stripper/brightener on the new wood prior to staining?
    -As far as stain color, the existing deck substructure has been stained a dark brown. I'd like to match the new stain to this. Suggestions on color?
    - I do plan to re-stain the substructure as well. Would you suggest stripping/brightening?

    See this about new wood:

    http://www.armstrongclarkstain.com/new-decking-and-armstrong-clark-stain

    Look at Rustic Brown color. Strip and brighten the old stain on the framing.

    I have an older, pretty weathered 1,200 sq ft deck that I have just finished resurfacing by sanding.....uhg! Do I need to use a cleaner, brightener or other product before applying a stain (thinking semi-solid)?

    Yes it would be a good idea to use the Restore A Deck cleaning prepping kits. You do not need the Stripper kit if the old stain is removed.

    I have one coat of ipe oil on my tigerwood, ipe deck. This was applied a year ago to my new deck. The deck is now grey. I am using your stain in mahogany. You recommended using the RAD stripper and brightner. Is it beneficial to sand my deck prior to stripping with my orbital sander? Thanks once again

    No need to sand.
