                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi, I recently used Olympic deck cleaner and a power washer to clean my pressure treated deck. It did a pretty good job but I did have a lot of extra work to get the old stain off the rim boards and the posts. Now that I've got that taken care of I learned that I should have used a sodium percarbonate wood deck cleaner instead. I do have a white residue on the wood that I can't seem to get off. I'm concerned it will prevent stain from soaking in correctly. <br />
	<br />
	My question is, is there a product that would be recommended to re-clean the deck to remove the white residue or should I just try to use a brightener to take care of it or am I out of luck and need just replace the wood now? <br />
	<br />
	Thanks for your help.]]></content:encoded>
