    I have a newer(3years old) pressure treated deck, never cleaned or sealed. I started cleaning the deck (starting with the railings and spindles) with the cleaner sold here. It has left behind a fuzzy look. Should I lightly sand the deck before I use the brightener, or do you recommend another solution. Located in NE Ohio.[/quote]
    This happens when you are moving a heavy layer of oxidized wood cells. Typically on decks that are left unstained for 1+ years. Yes you can lightly sand or buff to remove the fuzzies, then brighten.[/quote]
    What grit sandpaper would you suggest

    60-80 grit at most.

    I have used the product on my year old cedar deck, Question. when I applied the product I let it sit for the 15 minutes and then power washed it and wheni would step on it it would leave my boot print in wood so I applied again and used a brush and the stuff came off like snot. then power washed again and did it again and then it seemed the wood was clean. Is this the way it is suppose to work??? I am very stiff today after that workout.

    My pressure treated wood is ~5 months old. Doesn't look gray or in bad shape at all. I know it needs to be cleaned but do I need Restore A Deck or can I just use normal household cleaners? Same question about the brightener. Since the wood is so new do I need it?

    Yes you need to it remove mill glaze, dirt, and any oxidation of the wood cells.

    Do you recommend Restore-a deck and/or TWP stain for older wood shingles? They have been coated only with a preservative previously and are weathered in places.

    Thanks

    Yes, prep first with the Gemini Restore Kit before applying the TWP.

    I live in North Idaho on Lake Pend Oreille and have a brand new Cedar 800 sq ft deck. Since we are approved for either TWP 100 or 1500, which do you recommend and why?

    See this about new wood:

    http://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/

    Use the TWP 100 Series.

    I stained my new PT pine deck in the Spring, 2014 with 2 coats of TWP 1500. I followed all your instructions including, first cleaning with your Gemini Restore-A-Deck Kit. Now that 2 years have passed, it may be time to apply another coat as the rain no longer beads-up as before. But before I do, will it be necessary to apply the Gemini product again or is it OK to just apply the new coat over the old one?

    Isn it has been two year you should prep with the Gemini Restore kit. We forwarded your order to you from 2014. it was Cedartone 1501.

    Do you keep a record of purchases made by customers like myself? I purchased your stain in 2014 and I am planning on re-staining my deck this spring, with the same type and color. But I cannot recall what exact product I purchased. Is that something you keep record of?

    I have a treated wood (pine) deck in the Texas Hill country. I don't think it was ever sealed or stained. About half is more or less covered, and the half not covered shows more degradation from the sun and rain. What products should I use to clean and stain/seal it? I's about 840 ft^2tyotal. Also, it is elevated above a lower concrete deck. Should I clean and stain/seal the underside?

    Use the Gemini Restore Kit and pressure washing for the prep. Stain with the TWP 100 or 1500 Series. You can do the undersides if you like.

    I applied 2 coats of twp 1530 last season on a cedar deck . The deck still looks good but I would like to put another coat this season .what prep work do i need to do before I coat it again and will I need to do the 2 coat wet on wet again or will 1 coat be sufficient.

    Lightly wash to remove any dirt but not the coatings from last year. Just apply one light coat of the TWP.

    I applied 2 coats of TWP 100 on my deck. It now has black discoloration on it. I plan to put another coat on it this spring. Do I need one or 2 kits for a 60x20 ft. deck. Thanks.

    For 1200 sq. feet yo would need two kits.
