Burn Out

I have in the past been doing the power wash and removing the old deck color and reapplying the deck stain. I do this about every 2 years. Question is, if I just wash the deck and apply the new stain, like every year, ok? Or just do what I do and completely strip off the old stain and reapply? I did this again this season and last time I applied a brown color on the deck, so this time I bought a light natural color and applied....looked bad, since the old colors, where I didn't completely strip off was there visible thru the lighter new stain. So I couldn't find the right color brown, so I went with Brick Red, and this is a linseed oil based sealant. Looks good, but a pain in the ass to reapply to all the deck railings and lattice!
