Sealed Lead Acid Battery recovery

Hi, I'm planning to recover my battery using this method. I'm using a 12V 65Ah Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) battery. When I charge the battery, the current is supposed to drop below 0.5A, but it gets stuck at 1.9A. Before I start, I would like to ask if this is worth trying or not. Here is the procedure:
1.Connect the battery to a 12V 21W light bulb, which will draw approximately 1.5A

2.Discharge it until the voltage drops to 12.00V, then disconnect the load.

3.Charge the battery using a power supply set to 13.8V at 0.5A, and wait
