I have to go strip a customer applied ultra thick Sherwin Williams oil based deckscapes decking stain done a month ago. I don't know what crazy person's figment of imagination this product is based on - but this is a scary MOFO of stain! And it's ugly too!
I use a store bought degreaser as a 'proxy' stripper for doing test spots. It gives me a good idea of what I can and can't do. An miraculously - it was just barely able to strip the Sherwin and this black dark remnant crap underneath it as well - but it needed 4 applications and brushing before a hose could rinse it off.
So I put the order for the first time in my life of butyl on monday - coming in today - 2 days late on the job. But I am between a rock and hard place - this job is on the verge of needing a true paint stripper - it's going to be a hot brew today to get this stuff off! Customer has no idea of the ensuing miracles I am about to conduct - they're just worried about the barbecue on monday. Life as a 'woodie'
