Way to harsh - brush on an oxalic acid and let it work its way in. Then use a pressure washer on a light setting to simply wash it off. I hate to see decks to to hell in a hand-basket using these types of methods.

What is the citrus stripper that you used? I'm determined to get this paint off my deck!

what was that guy beneath you yelling about? Something about killing your mom or first born or something, right? ; )

We professionally refinish decks, fencing, cedar siding and log homes daily using a low pressure restoration approach. visit timberseal,net

how many PSI is your pressure washer as I read if you use a too powerful psi one you can damage the wood fibers. Some people even say to not use a Pressure Washer at all. What is your thoughts?

@patadams1991 : No, the stripper is applied directly to the deck using a paint brush, following the directions on the stripper drum/bottle.

That must have taken you quite awhile. How long to sand out all the stop and start marks from the use of high pressure?

The HP Jet did not damage the timber. I used a citrus based stripper and then a small psi Karcher to strip the paint. Yes it did take quite some time :-)
