• Trial run with oxy stain remover proved successful. Active ingredient is oxygenated bleach.

    My OH diplomatically pointed out the required timescale, so unfortunately I had to go the pressure washer route. I could hear the wood screaming and Collin the bald crying as I blasted the water into the wood, screws, cracks and crevices.

    But it worked and its a sunny day.

    Also gave the side panels a light blast and the roof a oxy scrub.

    Annoyingly I didn't take the before picture but this one from the sale thread will do:

    On a day like today, how long do I need to leave it before puttting on decking oil?
