Removing TWP?

Upon recommendation of Amteco we did some 40 year old rough sawn cedar siding on our house in TWP 201 Cedar. Though this is a Cedar shake product it was recommended because the old cedar was so rough. After cleaning, the boards were light colored and in pretty good shape.
The TWP turned the boards almost black. My wife freaked out and made me stop. And though a couple of weeks later they have lightened a little, they still look 100 years old. Amteco said it would take 4-6 weeks to finish settling in. It is hard to discribe what a bad color it is ...almost a greeny chocolate.
The TWP has set up like a glue in he wood fibers. Is there a solution or method for removing it? Or does anyone have any other advice?
Thanks

TWP does take time to reach its full color but that time is usually two weks or less. If it looks bad now, it most likely will not get better. What did you use to clean and prep. If your answer is "pressure wash" with no cleaning agent, you probably stained over mold spores.

Its probably time to call in a pro.
