Pressure washing marks

My painter pressure washed my deck despite me telling him I didn't want him doing anything to it. He did so carelessly and left marks. I just want him away from my house ASAP, so I'll be the one fixing it. (and I was planning to touch it up myself, any way).

It's an ipe deck. I plan to use the restore a deck system and then twp. ( I've done it before and it currently has twp on it.)

Questions: will the marks show through after after that process? Do I need to sand? If so, do I need to sand the whole deck so I don't have uneven stain from the sanding? (he also dripped paint and allowed it to dry, so I'm sanding that off anyway, so the last question stands even if the marks don't need to be sanded.

Thanks in advance, and thanks for all the past advice to others. It was invaluable when I was building/finishing my deck initially.
