Andrew,

Although we do not use EFC-38 specifically, we do use another percarb wood cleaner that is similar. Mixed at 6 - 8 oz./gal. of warm water, and usually sprayed on by a Delavan pump. For small jobs we often use a backpack sprayer.

Your problem may be not getting enough solution to the surface of the wood. Using a brush to apply percarbs or brighteners is too time consuming and difficult to get enough onto the wood. Generally figure coverage at about 100 sq. ft. per gal. of solution.

I agree with Rick, brushing would make for a long day. Try a sprayer. You'll love the increase in productivity. Also like Rick said bump it to 6-8 per gallon.

Those amounts are straight forward enough..but would anyone like to share up their percarb downstreaming experiences? Any disolving/clogging isues for instance?
