Product for Ipe: Woodrich Brand Wood Deck Cleaners and Sealers He even has a Canadian distributor.

Ipe all the way!!

You'll also learn about bleach strength.......if you're going to buy it in the jugs off the shelf somewhere - make SURE that you go somewhere that it's rotated regularly. Bleach loses efficacy over time and you might think you're getting a jug of 5-6% from the old Dollar store but it could have been sitting so long it's hardly 2% when you pour it...wasting your $$.

All I know is that video probably sold another unit for Jerry :)

What an EXCELLENT video Jon! I love that Sirocco can handle the stripper ick :)

Can't wait!!

Titan 440i is the airless we use for certain stains. It does need to be a heavy bodied stain for that though. A deckster will pay for itself with one deck if that is the route you want to go.

+100!

What stain are you atomizing to death? The only thing to keep it from everything is what you're doing.

Pressureman.........please complete your signature properly. All 5 of your posts have been pushing products - are you actually a vendor?

I suppose I'm going to be the mean one here but (a) if you don't even know what you're putting down - you shouldn't be using it (b) it takes practice to use a surfacer on a deck and you have to know how to tip the thing in order not to make a huge mess. 300 ft isn't squat not to mention the round thing doesn't get to the edges. You need to read about 1000 threads on wood care ..... or pick up the phone before you try anything else on a deck. Sorry to be harsh but too many contractors here specialize in wood and have fought like hell to set a standard that you may have just dropped into the pooper just messing around.

Is there sodium hydroxide in RipIt?

omg no

We do wood restoration in the Charlotte area..... Will send you a message :)

It's a good start :)

Test spot.

Redwood behaves differently. It's just the way it is.

Can you put together an MSDS for that and are you going to be covered liability-wise when something goes wrong? Those few pennies extra that you MIGHT spend purchasing and utilizing a good, tried & true product could save everything you own. Just sayin'.

Do NOT try to put an oil over an acrylic. It will not work I promise. Did you do a test spot to see if it will come off or at least determine what is there? Have you explored flipping the boards if stripping is too expensive? Pics are always so helpful.

That is just plain gorgeous :)

Tim, while we very much appreciate the photos and info, please check with Beth (TGS owner) about posting as a distributor :)
