Shane - do you bleach after stripping and before applying the oxalic acid?
And what concentration of oxalic do you use?

Thats pretty strong mix of OX. I usually use about 3 oz per gal. applied straight. Why the strong mix?

Hey Shane, Crystal does pretty good. I always laugh inside when I talk about stripping on a customers deck, but Crystal could be my answer. I'd better stop now before I go to far down this road.

I have noticed on decks (PTP) more than 2 years old that have never been treated, more furring occurs. Do you see the same or not?

It's been my mix of Oxalic for a while Jon and it seems to work pretty good. Are you mixing 99.8% Oxalic?

This deck didn't look like it furred to bad but it hadn't dried out yet so we'll see on Mon how it looks.

That is some great work. I bet the homeowners were impressed that their deck could look so good.
