Most paint suppliers have a remover you can use on decks.

Depends on how thick it is. You may have to sand blast and then sand it with side angle grinders. Try corn first, but you will still have to sand it to get a really nice finish.

It sounds like this house sat for awhile with no heat. I would try and get that humididty up higher. 50% +.

Probably not possible. It ismore than likelyvery deep into the wood fiber. You may have to replace some logs to get fresh looking wood again.

You can keep the pictures down for awhile and let the UV blend them back in.Best I can tell you.

It is OK, but watch your windows, wires and any metal trim. Sand is not forgiving to these and many other things. Sand is also very dangerous to your lungs. I would recommend a professional that knows how to handle this product.

If it is interior wash them with Liquid Gold, if it is exterior wash them with Log Wash from Perma Chink per label instructions. Go to www.timelesswoodcare.com for help.

My opinion….I would go with the cedar, T&G with butt and pass. Just be sure that the log ends do not stick out past the overhang of the roof.

Start sandingand wait at least 6-8 weeks before you stain if you have all that fuzz. That tells me someone powerwashedit way to hard.

Most all water seals are parafin (wax) based. You should remove it before you re-stain by corn cob blasting or sanding.
