Getting old paint off a deck
1 Attachment(s)
Anybody know the best way to get old paint off a deck? This big sander isn't working out like I thought it would. I'm thinking belt sander one board at a time.

turn the boards over:D
|
Replaced some cracked boards and let me tell ya, I've had all the nail pulling I can stand!
|
BIG pressure washer would take alot off with right tip

A pressure washer will make those boards "fur-faced" and, if you're not careful, you will eat 'em up. The best solution short of replacin' it is, like someone mentioned...flip the boards. The belt sander will work if time is no issue.
|
Boards are too old to flip. The get tore up pulling nails out. What about paint stripper then washing with regular pressure washer?
|
what do you plan to do to the boards after you strip them?

You need a drum sander that they use to strip wood floors, It's like a big belt sander.

not sure how this would work but how about putting good coats of paint then some type of traction tape or somthin like rino liner on it, may hold up better.... just a thought

I would hit it with a pressure washed but test it first to make sure it doesn't damage the wood . Then let it dry and stain it with a full body stain . Or replace it with TREX composite deck boards ....zero maintence
