Not familiar with that product. Restoring decks is messy, but easy, according to what you are getting off. Oil enamel is harder to strip than previous applications of deck stain, for example. And oil stains are easier to strip than acrylic stains. Etc

Strip with a stripper containing sodium hydroxide.
Keep stripper wet bu applying more, if necessary.
Let it work 20 to 30 minutes.
Pressure was the stripper and old stain off.
While it is still wet, apply a neutralizing acid, like oxalis acid to brighten the wood and bring the ph down.
Apply your stain of choice, preferably one that can be applied over itself without stripping in two years, or so.
Enjoy.
