<p>-Use the Restore A Deck stripper with both additives and pressure washing to remove as much as possible of the current stain: https://www.deckstainhelp.com/restore-a-deck-stain-stripper-booster-thickening-gel-review/</p>
<p>-Apply the Restore A Deck Brightener after: https://www.deckstainhelp.com/restore-a-deck-injectable-deck-stain-stripper-review/</p>
<p>-Let dry and spot sand any areas of the solid stain that are currently still peeling. </p>
<p>-Apply the Restore A Deck Stolid stain to the prepped deck that has only bare wood or intact/non-peeling old solid stain. Two coats:</p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’ve owned this home for almost 5 years.  The previous owners had used a dark solid stain. </p>
<p>Last year, I had the deck pressure washed and had a SW deck solid stain sprayed on with back brush.  It is already peeling and chipping. </p>
<p>I would like to add a new solid stain.  Please direct me to the best preparation and solid stain and seal.  I am assuming that because there have been multiple layers of solid stain, my only choice going forward is solid stain.  Also, is there a seal that is recommended.  Because I am choosing a light color, I would like to seal so that leaves and dirt easily wash off the stain. </p>
<p>Your recommendations and suggestions are greatly appreciated!</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
