Stripping Wood the Smart Way (Not the Hard Way)

Deep Wood Restoration Made Simple with DSR-50

Whether you’re a professional deck and fence restoration contractor or a homeowner prepping for a weekend restoration project, one of the toughest jobs is stripping old stains and finishes from exterior wood. That’s where DSR-50 comes in.

DSR-50 is a heavy duty liquid wood stain stripper for wood decks, wood siding, and wood fences. It will clean and brighten the natural wood as it strips the finish.

So, why is DSR-50 worth considering? What are the benefits it brings? And how does this tie into what your customers care about?

Why DSR-50 Is Worth Considering

DSR-50 is a heavy-duty wood stain and finish stripper designed to make exterior wood restoration faster, more predictable, and less labor-intensive. It’s effective on decks, fences, siding, and other exterior wood surfaces — especially when old stains, sealants, mildew, or years of UV exposure make the surface tough to restore. Instead of relying on sanding or damaging high pressure, DSR-50 chemically breaks down failing coatings so the wood can be cleaned and refinished properly.

The Benefits DSR-50 Brings

1. Saves Time & Labor

It dramatically reduces the amount of mechanical stripping and sanding required. Users can apply it, let it dwell, and rinse with low pressure — meaning less back-breaking work and fewer hours on the job.

2. More Effective Coating Removal

DSR-50 softens and removes old stains, sealants, and coatings that pressure alone won’t fully remove. This creates a cleaner, more even surface for new stain or sealant to adhere to.

3. Protects the Wood

Because you rinse at low pressure, you prevent wood gouging, furring, or structural damage that can come from blasting wood with high PSI.

4. Better Final Results

When the wood is properly stripped and brightened, new stains penetrate more evenly, look better, and last longer—fewer callbacks and happier customers.

5. High Coverage & Cost Efficiency

One 5-gallon pail can produce up to 300 gallons of usable solution depending on dilution, making it budget-friendly for contractors and homeowners with large areas to restore.

6. Versatile for Many Projects

Decks, fences, log homes, siding, pergolas — DSR-50 works across most exterior wood restoration scenarios.

Application Tips (value-add content)

Always test a small area with DSR-50 to determine the required dwell time and rinse pressure. PowerWash.com
Use the lowest pressure possible when rinsing wood after application, typically between 100 and 1,000 PSI for wood, and higher pressure only for hard surfaces. PowerWash.com
Neutralize the wood afterwards if needed (e.g., weak acid like oxalic or citric) and check pH to 7. PowerWash.com
Cover/protect plants and shrubs from run-off.
After using the stripper, apply a brightener or deck restorer before staining/sealing, as this improves adhesion and final look.

If you want to deliver a truly professional wood restoration job (one that saves labor, assures better final results, and uses trusted chemicals), then DSR-50 from PowerWash.com is a smart choice.
