So, now, head back to the home improvement center to buy another product - a deck stripping product with stain and finish remover. Be sure and corral the sales person again for help in deciding which one will most effectively remove old oil and latex stains from your deck.

Does he really know what he's talking about? It's a must to prepare the wood for any new finish or stain. How much work is involved in stripping your deck, even with the help of the deck stripping product you have just purchased? O.K. - Your deck is finally cleaned and stripped. You have prepared the wood for a new finish or a stain that will not only make it look beautiful and new, but will protect it from the elements. Has your finish seen better days?

Do you want a different look this time around? You'll need to go to the home improvement center again and look for a semitransparent stain - or a rich transparent oil finish - to enhance the beauty of your deck. Don't want to stain? It's still important to saturate your newly cleaned wood surface with a clear water repellent.
