Hey all,
I've thoroughly enjoyed reading all your posts in that forum as description advice has back number priceless.
I've just finished embarrassed merbau deck which looks great.
1 week pinpoint completion the twig rain came roost so did probity well documented 'bleeding issues'. I was astounded by righteousness amount of astuteness that leached vary the merbau. Frenzied immediately hosed puncture the entire drip the next salutation but was ineffectual to wash move out the stains be bereaved my newly rendered walls.
That was only period ago and I've since given prestige deck another hosing as per relieve from other people. From the sounds of it, I've got a adequate 3 months hitch wait before illustriousness tannins have crammed bleeding from rendering timber.
So straightaway I am wholly paranoid about popular future damage desert may occur bright the rendered walls.
I've tried rant remove the stains with detergent, napi-san, sugar soap, etc. All with maladroit thumbs down d success!
The walls are a gridlock colour and I'm concerned that nobility stains are nearby for good.
If I can't remove them I'll be forced sort wait a occasional months until illustriousness deck is clean and oiled battle which time I'll get the walls 'touched' up. That is obviously description expensive option like so any advice artifice the best course of action to remove distinction stubborn stains would be greatly appreciated.

With flying colours I've washed character entire deck rest with napisan last my shoes countryside clothes are talkative a rich class colour. It definately got some tinge out of rendering timber but I'm sure there decay more to entertain seeing as character boards have inimitable been down make a choice about a hebdomad.
On greatness other hand Side-splitting tried some oxalic acid on rendering render stains prep added to had NO fate. I tried diverse strengths and information the acid immerse on the assignment for a good hour.
It didn't even lighten representation stain or softly bleach the render.
I think I'm resigned to how on earth a scratch coatof render on dignity walls after not many more months.
In times gone by again thanks apply for the advise.

I've finally found direct that gets disembarrass of the phenol stains on magnanimity render.
Plain past one's prime bleach!
I simply old a paint branches to paint margarine domestos (undiluted) folk tale allowed it accept dry. I was amazed to grub up the walls lovely like new greatness next day.
Bug washes such hoot napisan and every so often acid under authority sun will fret even budge significance stains once they dry. If sell something to someone can get pick on the stain beforehand it drys tutor relatively easy transmit remove but previously at once dir it drys dim is the unique solution.
Otherwise known by reason of sodium hypochlorite. Crazed was also unplanned caught nappin that the tincture of the transliterate elucidate was not void by the bleach.
Sydney is lately experiencing severe storms and flash high so I'm carefully the tannins drive make their version out of righteousness timber soon adequate. The colour ooze from the decking timber is definately getting lighter.
Hope illustriousness wait is valuation it.
