This was just added to my site. Please correct any grammer mistakes for me if you would.

There is a new guy out near me who is using this product who says its the best thing. He has only been in business for 7 months. What a joke, I hope I never run into one of these decks.

2 story deck one right on top of the other. Needs to be stripped and refinished. I have done these in the past and dont like to do them. Please tell me your process, which one do you do first?
Personally i do the bottom one first otherwise the stripper would not work as well if the top was done first and the bottom deck was already wet. After the bottom deck is stripped i go to the top and strip in and constantly keep the bottom deck wet. Then brighten the top deck and rinse. Following up with the bottom deck brighten and rinse. I usually do not tape off or use plastic i just use alot of water. I feel using plastic sometimes gives you a false sense of security and you may not use as much water as you should.
Please share your method.

Beth,
I will post pics in a month or so. Do you have any suggestions of something that will work better than penofin or ready seal? That is also as easy to apply as these products ?? If so i would love a sample

Hey all,
Just thought you all should know i have used penofin the last 5 years. When i found this board everyone was saying how good readyseal was so i got a sampler from pierce. I decided to run my own test before offering it to my clients. The wood was cedar 6 inch wide fence boards. I had 5 boards screwed together. Boards were seasoned about 2 months prior outside before putting them together. Application was as follows I applied 3 light coats to each board, and boards were very dry. 2 with penofin and 3 with readyseal in gold, light brown and medium brown. The structure was placed on my deck about 10 ft above was a fir tree and some wet weather. All the readyseal boards are showing signs of alge already on top and mostly on the edges which was also treated. None of the penofin boards are showing any signs of alge. They both have faded slightly but thats it. I will post pictures in a few months after the full test is complete. I am glad a ran a test before using this product, Penofin is just as easy to use as readyseal but it seems atleast for the northwest penofin is a superior product.
More to come....................
