Hello - I am planning to re-seal a wood deck that previously had some type of waterproofing stain (previous homeowners applied) on the deck that is no longer repelling water from being absorbed into the wood. Do I need to use a deck stripper to remove all the old stain/water proofing, or can I just apply a deck cleaner product and then (after drying) apply a new water proofing stain?
I see Thompson's offers a product called "Heavy Duty Deck Cleaner" which both cleans the deck and removes old stains/waterproofers, however it doesn't appear that any of the big-box stores carry this particular product.
Thanks in advance!
