Technical Info

Test Patch:

Before general use, test on a small area to determine compatibility, required dwell time, and coverage for desired results. For an estimated 5 or less coats, scrape a section of the area with a stripping tool after one hour of dwell time. If not easily down to wood after one hour, leave on longer and test again hourly. For 10 – 15 coats of paint, cover with plastic and wait 24 hours to test. For best results, cover the stripper with plastic and do not allow to dry.

DIRECTIONS:

Shake well before use. Protect all areas not being stripped with plastic sheeting. Rubber gloves
and safety glasses are recommended for eye and skin protection.
Pour into a container and apply with a brush, roller (best applied with a 1 1/4” nap roller), or airless sprayer. Apply liberally - the stripper should cover the color of the stain. For best results and extended dwell times, cover stripper with plastic. Do not let stripper dry out, mist with water if you notice any dry areas. Refer to test area on dwell time before stripping. Test stripping a small area to ensure you are down to the substrate. If not, leave R-A-D™ PaintStrip on and let it do its job. R-A-D™ PaintStrip may or may not bubble. This will depend on the type of paint or sealer being removed. One gallon covers approximately 50-100 sq. ft. Best results are achieved when R-A-D PaintStrip is applied at temperatures between 60F and 80F.
For best results, agitate with a stiff bristle brush and then remove by either scraping or pressure
washing. Always pressure wash at an angle so that the water jet acts as a chisel.
Let surface dry completely before refinishing. Clean all tools with soap and water.
Dispose of paint or sealer waste in accordance with local, State, and Federal regulations.

COVERAGE:

R-A-D™ PaintStrip covers approximately 50-100 square feet per gallon of product. Coverage will vary on application method and substrate.

The deck on the house I bought needs refinished. I can’t tell if it is done in semi solid or what. Will RAD work on everything.

It is a filming forming semi-transparent stain. Use the RAD stripper with both the gel and booster additives, and brightener afterward.

Hit this with the stripper. Is it ready to brighten and varnish?

Reply to Ben cannon

That looks good.

can apply this product using a pump sprayer?

Reply to Ben

No, it is too thick. Best to roll it on.

I have a 10 year old deck that has solid stain on it. I am planning to use RAD on it to get all the remaining solid stain off. Two questions:
1- do I need to use a cleaner brightner after using RAD?
2- what stain series would be best, 109, 1500 or semi ?
Thanks

Reply to Margaret Blankenmyer

1. Yes.
2. 1500 series.

I used RAD wood stripper and power washed the deck. Do I need to apply anything else before staining? Which satin product would you recommend?

Reply to Erika G

Hi,

You still have some old stain that needs to come off near the house. Before staining, see this about new wood:
https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/

Would this need R-A-D or Restore-a-deck Stain Stripper?

That’s a solid stain. Use the RAD PaintStrip.

How long does it take for the RAD stain Remover to take off 2 to 3 layers of solid deck paint. Can I leave it on for 12 hours, won’t it dry out? Or should I reapply after minitial layer come off. Thanks, Lisa

1+ hours. You can test if it is working fully down to the bare wood with some mild scraping prior to pressure washing off. You can leave it on for up to 24 hours.
