Directions and Technical Info

Test Patch:

Before general use, test on a small area to determine compatibility, required dwell time, and coverage for desired results. For an estimated 5 or less coats, scrape a section of the area with a stripping tool after one hour of dwell time. If not easily down to wood after one hour, leave on longer and test again hourly. For 10 – 15 coats of paint, cover with plastic and wait 24 hours to test. For best results, cover the stripper with plastic and do not allow to dry.

DIRECTIONS:

Shake well before use. Protect all areas not being stripped with plastic sheeting. Rubber gloves
and safety glasses are recommended for eye and skin protection.
Pour into a container and apply with a brush, roller (best applied with a 1 1/4” nap roller), or airless sprayer. Apply liberally - the stripper should cover the color of the stain. For best results and extended dwell times, cover stripper with plastic. Do not let stripper dry out, mist with water if you notice any dry areas. Refer to test area on dwell time before stripping. Test stripping a small area to ensure you are down to the substrate. If not, leave R-A-D™ PaintStrip on and let it do its job. R-A-D™ PaintStrip may or may not bubble. This will depend on the type of paint or sealer being removed. One gallon covers approximately 50-100 sq. ft. Best results are achieved when R-A-D PaintStrip is applied at temperatures between 60F and 80F.
For best results, agitate with a stiff bristle brush and then remove by either scraping or pressure
washing. Always pressure wash at an angle so that the water jet acts as a chisel.
Let surface dry completely before refinishing. Clean all tools with soap and water.
Dispose of paint or sealer waste in accordance with local, State, and Federal regulations.

COVERAGE:

I bought my house two years ago and the previous owners used some demon paint on the deck – the sun removed some patches but nothing could remove it all. I attempted various different things to clean and prep my deck from the big box stores with limited success and was about to admit defeat and just replace all my boards. However, this sample brought back my faith to restore my deck. The wet part was restore a deck a sample and completely made the boards look like new, the dark color stain was the weathered beat up boards with the full paint, and the light boards at the bottom where after failed attempts to use products recommended by sales reps at the big box stores.

What stripper should I use on this deck? Approx 300 sq.ft., 20 year-old redwood deck with older railings. Substructure is still good. We love this deck – for years we put on Sikkens SRD (first transparent, then semi), but 5 years ago I decided to switch to semi-solid (BM Arborcoat) to have the older railings and decking be same color. Absolutely regret it! I’d love the decking to be back to semi-transparent so the redwood can come through, and will paint (semi-solid) the railings again in contrast. The deck gets full sun, San Francisco Bay Area so rain but no frost, snow.

It looks opaque so you would need the RAD PaintStrip to get this coating off.

How many coats of Semi transparent stain should i use on a deck that had solid stain on it . I used the RAD solid stain paint stripper and sanded it off and now ready to use RAD semi transparent deck stain.

Reply to Lee ANn

Just apply one coat if you sanded the wood.

Need help on what to use as far as stripper for two items. One is a cedar fence with a stain, other item is a table with teak or eucolyptos type wood with I believe is stained. Pictures taken after cleaner and brightner applied to both.

Reply to Michael

Do you know what stain brand and type is around the knots on the fence? It looks opaque and different than the other fence panels.

Reply to RAD Products

No I do not know. The stain brand around the knots on the fence is about eight to 10 years old. The other panels I just completed a few weeks ago with typical RAD process becuase as they were not stained with the same product as the remaining panel

Can you send a close-up of the stain around the knots? We need to confirm if it is opaque, and you will need to use the RAD PaintStrip to remove it.

attached is picture

Attached is fence picture.

Regarding 2nd picture in first posting,will PaintStrip be applicable, it is teak or similar type wood?

The fence is made of pine, and we would use the RAD PaintStrip to spot-apply around the knots to remove it. Then, we would wash the rest of the wood and brighten it all.

For the table, most is removed, so you could use our regular deck stripper there or the RAD PaintStrip if you prefer to work with one product.
