Can I wash the ATO off with a deck stain remover or will I need to power sand it off? I would like to use a higher quality stain afterwards in a neutral earth tone.
If using a stain remover, should I do it ASAP before the ATO has cured, or should I wait till next spring and let the suns rays bleach it out a bit (the deck faces south with full sun) and then strip it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

P.S. Great site! Wish I had found it sooner.]]> Deck Stain Questions and Answers bluetube https://forum.deckstainhelp.com/deck-stain-questions-and-answers/removing-austrialian-timber-oil-from-new-cedar-deck/#post-9343
