Dave Kisker:

I'm going to order some samples, but want to eliminate obvious wrong ones. In particular, we want to be in the brown direction, (cedar-ish) not overly dark, and above all, do NOT want orange. The wood is redwood with both sapwood and heartwood, so the orange would really stand out on the sap. Also, it's a fence, in Colorado, if that matters. I was looking at Rustic, but see that it's pretty red from a comment below, even though it looks pretty brown on my monitor. Dark Oak seems to be one possibility, if dark. Is Pecan another? Is the Cedartone pretty orange? Could we mix something with the Dark Oak to lighten it a bit, but keep the brown-ish tone?
Thanks.

Dark Oak or Pecan and use you can mix colors together.

We used TWP rustic oak 516 for many years. We need more stain and want to know if the TWP rustic 1516 is the same color or at least a good substitute.

Yes it is the same color and replaces the old 516.

I have a 5 year old home with cedar siding with chinking between the planks which gives it a log home look. It was stained with Cabot semi transparent stain (oil) in their chestnut brown. The home is in Colorado at 7500' elevation. The UV is really strong here. The climate is relativley dry, we get very strong winter winds and the temperature can get as low as -20 and as high ass 90. The east and west side of the home is looking very thirsty and the siding is starting to turn a little dark. Will the TWP 1500 work and can you match the tint to the cabot color if we got the color formula? How long would you say the TWP would last in these conditions?

We do not color match and you would need to prep first by using the Restore A Deck Stripper and pressure washing to remove the Cabot. Apply brightener when finished. One verticals it will last 5-8 years, maybe longer.

Hi, we live in southern Indiana. We have a redwood deck that is 35 years old , and we are sanding with 40 grit sandpaper to remove all the old finish . I'm 65 years old and wife is 62 so we are not very fast we're in to our second week of sanding and may need another week to finish . The first wood we sanded has been rained on and is starting to lose it's red pinkish tint . What do we need to do after we finish sanded before we apply your 1500 product? We are thinking maybe the 1511 Cal. Red . Like I said we're kind of slow and don't know if we can get the second coat on before the first drys , should we try for two coats or put on one and then reapply next year? We do not want this peeling off like the last product we put on it which was Behr weather proofing wood finish. We are hoping to never have to sand again. Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated . Thanks ,Ken

Use the Gemini Restore Kit after the sanding for the final prep. Get some samples from site for colors.

If you cannot do the wet on wet application then just do one coat now and one coat next year only if needed. Best to have full penetration.

I build outdoor furniture, Swings, Picnic Tables, Chairs by order. Customers are always asking me what to use on there furniture they just bought. I use to recomend Cabot oil stain, but Lowes does not sell it anymore. I want to give them the best product available. Does your product work well on sitting type furniture. Can you help me? Thanks Norman

Yes you can use TWP on exterior wood furniture as long as the wood is prepped correctly.

I bought camp in Western PA with rough cut wood siding. It has been stained at some point with an oilbased stain or linseed oil and needs refreshed. Can I put the TWP1500 over this? Looking at the Black walnut or Dark Oak. I was planning to powerwash and apply. Any suggestions?

You need to remove the old stain first if you want the TWP to perform properly.

I have Western Red Cedar deck and want to know which stain color in the 1500 series will allow the cedar to retain it's natural appearance/color?

Thanks..

All TWP colors will enhance the natural grain of the wood. Not sure what color you want to enhance too so that is why you should test a few samples.
