I just stripped and brightened 12 decks at a condo complex. The association likes the work I’m doing well enough thus far, that they now want me to strip/brighten/seal 250’ of privacy fence, also. This fence separates the complex from a fire station. With any luck, I’ll get approval from the Fire Marshall to do their side also, but if not, I have a few questions…
1) I don’t think this fence has ever been sealed, so it may just need a good wash with a sodium percarb solution. How can you tell if there has ever been a sealer on wood? Just splash water on it and look for beads?
2) Even with tarp or plastic hanging behind a fence, how do you prevent some over spray from running down the opposite side along the cracks?
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
