This should have stripped off well. Are you using a pressure washer after applying the stripper? if so, what PSI and GPM?]]> Deck Stain Questions and Answers Scott Paul ~ Restoring Wood & Decks Since 1993 https://forum.deckstainhelp.com/deck-stain-questions-and-answers/white-residue-on-stained-pine-deck/#post-10729 https://forum.deckstainhelp.com/deck-stain-questions-and-answers/white-residue-on-stained-pine-deck/#post-10727 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 09:06:51 +0000 Deck Stain Questions and Answers kyler https://forum.deckstainhelp.com/deck-stain-questions-and-answers/white-residue-on-stained-pine-deck/#post-10727 https://forum.deckstainhelp.com/deck-stain-questions-and-answers/white-residue-on-stained-pine-deck/#post-10726 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 01:25:25 +0000
Will these dark ares blend in if I just brighten and stain? Would I need a darker stain to cover? And would I need to use the same defy, or would a dif brand risk not sticking well if that indeed is a bit of defy butternut left? I'm getting tired of dealing w/ this but if I need to spot stain again, so be it. What do you rec as the next steps. Stain? Sand-clean-brighten-stain? Brighten-stain?

I had wanted to get it clean enough to go w/ a lighter stain, but at this point am willing to go a bit darker. I wanted to try an oil (leaning towards armstrong-clark because of your ratings and feedback, but tempted to use cabots austrialian or something easily accessible locally). Can you advise please? I've been looking at so many forums and online stuff, I'm a bit overwhelmed at this point. I never thot I'd spend this much time on my deck.

Guessing I do or will the defy blend this. I have not rebrightened...will this help? If I do have to strip, I'm tempted to move away from defy as good as the reviews are, if any change another brand (oil based?) will hide this better (??). Thots? Also, I got the wood at menards. Wonder if their pine treated deck board might be part of the cause? Here are some pics I dug up. The first is 2.5 yrs old of the white residue after I sanded the entire deck, just prior to first staining. Pic 2 is the white residue showing up through the stain after 1st winter (showed up in abt 6 mos...this pic is a bit over a year past the stain date). Pic 3 shows mid sanding. Center not sanded yet, but right and very front has been sanded. You can see how a lot of the old stain now contrasts with the newly sanded areas which I'm assuming will still be there after restaining even w/ same defy. Thots?
.If I need to strip, does it matter if I use Defy's stripper or Jomax (Jomax more available in my location so I could do it today). And do I need to mask off my wood siding house? Thanks for the help!
