Recent question about stain removal – Shakopee MN
Author: MN Deck StainerQuestion from a non-customer:
“I have a client that had their deck stained two weeks ago. Red stain. It is all over the black railings( I think they are aluminum), concrete and vinyl siding. Do you know how to remove stain from these items? Can it be done? Do you remove stain? Thanks for your help.”
Answer:
First and foremost, thank you for your question. This is not uncommon when staining is done by the inexperienced, but rest in the fact that if you approach the situation carefully and patiently, the results can get better.
There is a product line that can be found at Home Depot called Lift Off, by Motsenbocker. I have had success on all of those surfaces with their lift off #4. When using it try it on a small area first, and apply it in small amounts a couple times until you have reduced the stain.
I have found that excessive application or rubbing on the stain will begin to take off the original surfacing, so please read the bottle carefully and follow their instructions above my suggestions. Also, depending on the surface you may not be able to remove all of it, however you will probably be pleased over the current condition.
