I got a call from a lady selling her house, which has a cedar deck with Sikkens on it. She needs the job done asap, so I can't do it for her..........but I'm not sure I'd want to anyway.
What has your experiences been in stripping Sikkens? I know several of the strippers on the market today are said to strip Sikkens.......but I'm still leary of such a job.
This particular person went to Home Depot and spent the weekend trying to strip the deck themselves.....a futile effort.
Can a solid stain be applied over top of their half way stripped rails and spindles? Would it last? In that scenario, the floor could be stripped/sanded and the worst of it (rails/spidles) would not have to be stripped.
Is that feasible?
