Would RecommendEasy to apply. Didn’t take everything off but did a decent job considering my deck had a few layers of older peeling stain on it.

Absolutely junk
Would Not RecommendDid 2 times on wood deck with weathered paint. 1st waited 20 min and 2nd waited 40 min. Didn't even touch the paint. Waste of money.

Worthless. Actually, worse than worthless.
Would Not RecommendApplied this product to the letter of instruction. Did nothing. That is not hyperbole, it did NOTHING. Perhaps I am too harsh in stating it did nothing in that it kind of cleaned the surface. Did not remove any paint from wood decking that had just one coat of paint. If I did not use this for myself, I would not believe someone in saying it did nothing. Again, it did NOTHING!!!

Good product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the product on an old deck and it worked amazing! Was very easy to use leaving no mess behind and was a very easy clean up after scraping the deck and sweeping it all up.

Ineffective
Would Not RecommendAs a test, applied to 6 fence pickets that have a 5 year old dark stain. Was 100% ineffective. I had already used a pressure washer on 16 feet of this fence but it left behind a lot so I was hoping this would help but it wasn't. Will try to return for a refund if possible.
Thanks for leaving a review. I understand that you had a frustrating experience. It's important to apply this product liberally and repeat cleani...

Not good unless wood is weathered
Would Not RecommendDidn’t work worth a dahm. Even after using a 3100 psi pressure washer still only pulled up a little bit. Wouldn’t recommend on non weathered wood.

It helps - nothing is great at removing old stain
Would RecommendIt helps remove old stain. Leave it on for at least 45 minutes. It leaves a residue on the wood and the wood prep is supposed to remove it. I’m hoping the fogging on my windows from the power wash sprayer comes off with window cleaner but there’s a warning to avoid contact with glass.
