Just hit it with enough pressure and it will blast off the old looking wood. I know, I have done this more than once with redwall lattice, siding, etc... Sanding will give you a smoother finish but pressure washing is much faster. Stretch is incorrect:

Alow it to dry for at least 48 hrs then stain it the color of choice and apply a sealer that is rated for outdoors per the manufacturers instructions. You can skip the stain step if you prefer the look of the unstained redwood. Use a pressure washer with at least 4000psi to clean the redwood thouroughly.

The wood has faded and aged due to exposure to the elements. The only true way to make it look good ad crisp is to sand it down slightly, Then apply a sealant that prevents wakter, moisutre, etc from entering the pores of the wood. don't sand the wood and then wait several weeks to seal it. Apply the sealant as quickly as possible. This will protect the wood for several years to come.... Good luck Using a pressure washer on wood isn’t going to rejuvenate the appearance of the lumber.
