I AGREE ! Ready Seal is the answer. Unfortunately last years consumer reports judged Cabot very highly. The normal homeowner hasn't got a clue as to what else is out there. If he wants to get technical and compare solids n chemical make up etc. he can always call sun brite or Ready Seal in...

Hi Barry, Welcome to our world of wood restoration, Yes , we at Sun Brite do require all customers to give us a deposit, we get 1/3 of the job up front, we tell them that when we receive the deposit , we then schedule there work. Now these can be a touchy area, especially for those who are new...

Hey Tuna, I would first try "stripsol" it works well on most latex products, or I would sand it. If you want stripsol call sunbrite 770-277-6363 it's like $25.00 bucks a gallon (not cheap) but works pretty well. sanding is cheaper and never fails. good luck Chris Detter/ Sunbrite

Hey Dakota, I don't know what to strip polyurethane with other than sanding it off, Maybe someone else has had more experience with it. sorry, chris Detter sunbrite

Hey Dan, Walk away from this guy as fast as you can. I've seen too many who want your services for free, Plus after you do it for nothing he's the guy who will keep hounding you to touch it up forever. Let some newbee lose the money and gain the experience. Remember, you get what you pay for...

Hey Steve, We are Ready seal distributors and love the product but we still use only Extreme on most of our docks, You can't go wrong. If you want to chat w/ us our office # is 770-277-6363 or www.sunbritedecks.com we will be glad to explain why. Thanks Chris Detter/ Sun brite

Hi Tim, I would go with your first impulse, using a bleach soultion followed with a neutralizer. Be sure the wood is dry before sealing, as long as the wood has cured you'll be OK. Good luck Chris

Hey Mike Here in Atlanta at Sun Brite, we use the same formula as lower decks but we charge $12.oo per step, Thanks Chris

Hey Tom We use Ready Seal on all our decks, When we do cedar decks we add mineral sprits(Paint thinner) to the sealer it helps the knots absorb the sealer deeper and tends to look better and last longer, Chris@ sunbrite

We use the Deck Hand for everything, applying cleaners, strippers, brighteners and sealer, The only thing we use an airless for is Wolman Extreme and Cabot solid color stain, Chris @ sunbrite www.sunbritedecks.com

Hey Mike, I would just treat this deck like a simple, quick maintenance job. use an oxygenated bleach powder/ solution mixed with water "safewash" wash with light pressure, You are very lucky they don't want you to strip it off. Seems only people in Georgia want it stripped off, It's a bear to...
