    Wood Bleach

    I am going to need to bleach alot of wood in the near future and was wondering does Clorox bleach for clothes do the same thing as 2 part wood bleach??? If anyone has done this what are some of the dos and donts and pros and cons??? If not does anyone know of a place where I can get wood bleach at a reasonable price??? Thanks in advance.

    Here is a link http://www.hoodfinishing.com/Wood_Toners_Bleaches.html

    The 190 is the best 2 part wood bleach I know of. Oxalic acid is a "lightener" and/or cleaner in my opinion. Clorox is not a proper product and not at all effective.

    Here is an excellent article about the three bleaches used for woodworking. Each has their own purpose. The article is by Jeff Jewitt.
