We will reply to your comment shortly· 02/02/2019I have some leftover TWP 100 from staining my porch. Can I use it on a picnic table or is it inappropriate for an eating surface?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs there an advantage to using twp 100 over TWP 1500 if your state allows it? I will be staining a new wood deck about 12 months after it was constructed.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo advantage. They will both last about the same.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am absolutely not allowed to apply anything on or even near the water. No mitigation is acceptable. I will have to remove the deck transport it off the water and stain it there. A lot of extra work. Do you recommend staining all sides or just the top?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyJust the exposed side.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am getting ready to install 2x6 KDAT decking on a dock. I would like to stain all sides of the boards but this will have to be done before installation. I would not be able to wait the recommended 2 months. I am not allowed to apply stain on the boards if they are on the floating dock per lake regulation.
What is my next best option?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou cannot do it now as it needs to weather. Install, let weather, prep, and stain. You can either remove from water to stain or use something to catch the stain drips from getting into the water.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWhat would be the coverage per gallow for TWP100 on Preasure Treated Pine that has been left to dry out for a year? Would I get closer to 100 sqft per gallon or closer to the 200 sqft per gallon? My get is 630 sqft. Thanks!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will need about 5-6 gallons for the 630 sq feet and the two coats applied wet on wet.

We will reply to your comment shortlyLate yesterday-Monday, I prepped my wood deck with the Gemini restore deck kit--cleaner and brightener. I understand I need to wait 48 hours before staining (TWP 100 pecan)--so I am good to stain tomorrow-Wednesday late in the day. However, rain is forecast with in 24 hours (maybe 12-18 hours after my stain application (on thursday). The can says don't apply the stain if rain is expected in 48 hours. SHOULD I WAIT TO STAIN FOR A DAY WHERE THERE IS NO FORECASTED RAIN THREAT? I would really like to get this done tomorrow if at all possible and not delay it
Thanks Dave-
We will reply to your comment shortly12-24 hours after applying should be okay for a rain.
Thanks-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI applied the TWP 100 yesterday and thankfully 12 hours later--no rain.
How soon can it be walked on? (I've read the can twice and it has zero instructions on how to tell when it's okay to walk on the deck after staining)
thanks-

We will reply to your comment shortly12-48 hours. Make sure it is dry and not sticky or tacky.

We will reply to your comment shortlyMy neighbor decided to run his sprinklers and soak my fence just hours after staining....is there anything that can be done? What happens when the fence gets wet after staining?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHard to say if affected or not but most likely fine. It would very noticeable if it is an issue with stain drips and runs.
-
We will reply to your comment shortly:( now that its daylight I can see the damage. Only dripping in 6-7 areas on 1 side of the fence. Anything I can do to soften the spots up without redoing the whole thing?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyFYI, that is not from the sprinklers but bleed through from the opposite side. Try just touching up those 7 boards by lightly recoating them. Make sure do the entire board length end to end.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi,
I had a new PTP deck installed approx. 7 months ago. Approx. one month ago two boards were sanded down level with the other boards bc they had warped/risen up higher than the other boards on deck. I live in the NC mountains w/lots of shade, rain and prone to mold/mildew. How long should I wait for those two boards to weather before I stain, and do you recommend TWP 100 or 1500? Also, do you think Gemini deck cleaner/brightener kit will remove the wood stamps?
Thank you so much!
Patti-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the TWP 100 Series. The prep kit will not remove the stamps. You will have to sand them off now. Let all wood weather for 1-2 months after you sand and then proceed with the prep and stain.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHas anyone used the TWP Cape Cod gray, does it allow for the wood grain to still be seen some or does it look like its been painted? (solid)
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt will depend on the type of wood you are applying the Cape Cod gray on as to the amount of wood grain/knots that will show through. I live in SC and applied it to "new" one year old weathered pressure treated lumber. I ordered a sample of the color and it appeared more solid on the sample I received than on my dock wood. Some areas of my wood are more solid color and some show the grain and knots through this stain. It has only been applied about 2 months, so I can't attest to how well it will weather, but it certainly repels water. GOOD LUCK!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt is not a solid stain but close to a semi-solid. See here for some pics: https://www.twpstain.com/twp-105-cape-cod-gray

We will reply to your comment shortlyIf I apply a clear oil based sealer on my deck like Thompson water seal does the deck need to to be prepped the next year for your stain and if so what would be the prep for that? Also would it just be better to Pressure wash and skip the seal all together? Thanks
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will have to strip off the Thompsons first. No point in using a clear sealer.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOkay so you would need a product to recoat even if it's the same color? Are the semi solid colors still oil based? What is the expected typical longevity of those coatings?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou always gave to prep when recoating. Yes they are oil based. 2-3 years.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThanks, I was considering twp 100 in the gray color but don't want a solid coating that is going to need to be stripped each time I have to re coat. Would I be able to reapply the same coating each time with minimal prep? Does the gray color tend o peel? I assume itis classified as a semi transparent still or is it actually considered a semi solid? Would there be better options? I have a pressure treated deck that is only a couple feet off the ground and is south facing in Michigan climate. Thanks
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe gray is not a solid color but a semi-solid. You can clean and reapply as needed. It does not peel.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you. So what is the process to reapply the same grey color? Also, if I decided I wanted a differentStain color later what is the process to prepare for a differentcolor stain?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTo recoat with the gray, use the Gemini Restore Kit. If you want to switch colors, use the Restore A Deck Stripper and Brightener Kits.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI ordered a sample of the TWP 100 Dark Oak stain and it is no where close to a dark brown. More orange. See photos...
It was applied to a sample of PT Pine wood. Is it possible that the sample I received had the wrong label on it?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThat is the correct color sample. The issue you are seeing it is being applied to unweathered and not properly prepped wood. This will result in much less color absorption.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe wood has been laying outside in the weather for at least 3 years. It was cleaned prior to applying stain.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello,
The sample is still correct. The issue with less color lies with the wood exposure/prep.-

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am looking to re-stain my deck as I just bought a house and it really needs to be stained again. What are the proper preparation steps?
-
We will reply to your comment shortly
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will need to sand off the current stain on the railings or use a stain stripper: https://www.twpstain.com/wood-stain-strippers
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, this depends on the brand and type of stain that is currently on the wood now? Feel free to post a picture or two.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI have bo idea what is on it but it doesn't look like it's been stained in years so I think sanding it would be just fine.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOkay but if you have time, post a picture please.

We will reply to your comment shortlyDeck on rear of lake house was painted 10 years ago by former owner. Paint is beginning to peel. My plan is to pressure wash the deck and then stain with TWP 100. Is the appropriate process or do I need to prep the wood?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAdam, pressure washing will not remove the paint fully and it will have to come off if you want to use the TWP. You will pprobablyhave to sand it off after the pressure washing to remove the rest.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI'm going with the TWP Dark Walnut stain on my southern facing deck (I live in Michigan). The deck was power washed last summer. With this dark color do I need to clean this again? I hope not!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, you have to prep again. Thanks
