over spray

Question

In the fall of this year, I stripped and restained an older deck using CWF. A few weeks later the homeowner had his stucco house spray painted. The painter tarped off about a 3ft around from the house covering the deck. The over spray went beyond the tarping and there is a fine midst line running down the deck. Now that the tarps are removed, this line is very noticeable. You can see the spray midst on the deck. I am told it is a latex paint. The contractor is not doing anything about it. This is where I step in.

Does anyone know what the best method is for correcting this problem?

Rod says if it is a light mist you can power wash it off. It should not have bonded, or will have bonded minimally to the CWF.

If you have any EFC-38 on hand try it at 3 or 4 oz. to the gallon.

At that strength it shouldn't hurt the CWF. Let dwell 10 minutes.

Call us if you need field help.

Have you tried anything yet ? This is the painter's problem ! You can try 0000 steel wool and rub it offf if it is small spray spots. Try acetone and rub it off. No matter what you do it will change the appearance of the area a bit.
