I am trying to finish a new deck that I just had built, but I cannot seem to remove the ink stamps that the mill put on the boards. Any suggestions? I have tried sanding them out, but they seem to run pretty deep.

We just got done doing our deck and we just turned the wood over so that the ink was on the bottom....too late for that, huh?

Ink side goes down. No solution here. I have tried about everything, and everything I have tried leaves a worse mark. Good Luck
