I'm very satisfied with my result, after many days of research I found this product which I did not know that existed. Easy to apply, used garden pump and a dollar brush.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe will be staining our 450 sf tight knot cedar deck with TWP 103 Dark Oak this July after 11 months of weathering. We plan to clean and brighten with the Gemini RAD kit.
-Is just one coat needed at this time, and if so, will 3 gallons (450/200 = 2.25) be sufficient to ensure we do not run out?
We are currently building an additional 400 sf deck which will be ready to stain July 2020. At that time we plan to apply a maintenance coat on the 450 sf and the first coat on the 400 sf. We will clean and brighten the new 400 sf section.
-Can/should we use the Gemini cleaner on the 450 sf receiving the 1-year maintenance coat?
-Will just one coat be necessary for the 450 sf maintenance coat?
-Provided just one coat is needed on both sections, will 5 gallons (850/200 = 4.25) be sufficient to ensure we do not run out?
-Is there a time limit on the stain sample $15 rebate? I purchased 3 TWP samples in August 2018 and plan to use it to purchase the 5 gallons in summer of 2020.
Thanks for your help!-
We will reply to your comment shortly3 gallons should be enough for 1 coat and 450 sq feet. Use the Gemini Kit for maintenance coats. 5-gallons may not cover 850 sq feet. No time limit on sample rebates.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThanks again! We'll probably get 6 gallons next year just to be safe.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUpdate: I finished prepping and staining the first 410 sf (450 was a miscalculation). I am very pleased with the results and have attached before, during and after pictures. I followed these steps:
- Used Gemini cleaner and brightener to remove dirt and gray oxidization with pressure washer – there was a lot of gray so it took an evening and morning (deck remained wet overnight)
- Waited 53 hours over two sunny days in the 70’s/80’s (humidity a bit high in the 70’s/80’s as well)
- Used stain pad on 3-4 boards at a time, then took a towel and wiped down each board to make sure there was no pooling
- Stored the remaining stain from 5 gallon container into empty 1 gallon paint canisters and had 3.5 gallons leftover…
I’m wondering since I only used 1.5 gallons of stain, less than expected assuming 200 sf/gallon, is there a chance I “under-applied” even though I followed the above steps? I was planning to apply a maintenance coat next summer – would there be any benefit to applying it before then since we have very wet, dark winters (we're in Western WA). The new stain container was VERY full when we received it so could it possibly have contained more than 5 gallons?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyDoesn't look like you dunder applied. Coverage will always vary based on the porosity of the wood. Just do your maintenance coat next year.

We will reply to your comment shortlyThanks, it will be easier to just apply stain to both sections next year. I appreciate your help. This site has been a great guide throughout the process.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am needing to restain my deck, and wondering if I need to strip away the old stain, or if I can just clean and brighten. I used your 100 Series Pecan color back in 2016. There are some areas that look like it has worn away, and other areas that just look dirty. Attaching a couple of pictures. My posts and vertical surfaces still look good compared to flat areas. Do I need to redo those as well?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWe would strip due to the uneven wear. Very easy to do with this: https://www.twpstain.com/restore-a-deck-stripper-brightener-kit-detail

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe are building a wood deck using pressure treated hemlock fir I believe. I'm reading that I should not use a solid paint sealant because it will not bond to the wood, is that correct? If so, what are my options for this color of wood? I don't want a dark deck, so would the ceder or pecan work?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyCedar or Pecan would work. TWP is a penetrating semi-transparent wood stain.

We will reply to your comment shortlyi bought a couple 5 gal. containers of your TWP 1500 series honeytone (1515) in mid 2016. They are unopened and have remained in their original shipping boxes in my basement till now (temp. range in basement is from around 45-70 deg. F). Are these still usable? Thanks much.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, they should be fine. Just mix well first and make sure it mixes 100% fluid.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello,
I just got a new treated picket fence installed. What series product with UV blocker in the Texas heat do u recommend. And how long before I can spray it on the new fence? Also, how many years is it good for?
Thanks-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee here about new wood: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
Use the TWP 1500 Series. On a fence, recoat every 3-5 years or as needed.

We will reply to your comment shortlyDo you have a clear in the 100? I’m not a fan of any color, I just want the natural look.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, I have stained my deck twice with your 100 series dark oak (103) color. I'd prefer to go with a lighter color, but am not sure if this is possible without totally sanding it down, which I'm not willing to do due to the age of the wood and not wanting to damage it. If I were to stain over the dark oak color with one of your semi-solid colors such as cape code gray or prairie gray, would they cover it and be true to color, or would it end up being a strange looking color with the dark oak showing through, since it's such a dark color? If they would cover it, would you recommend one of those colors over the other, for coverage over the dark oak?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo. You will have to strip off the Dark Oak when switching colors. You cannot cover it with the grays. Use this: https://www.twpstain.com/restore-a-deck-stripper-brightener-kit-detail
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOk so applying the stripper through a pressure washer one time will totally remove it? No need for sanding? What does the brightener do? Do I need that?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyDo not apply it through a pressure washer. Pump spray it on and then pressure wash off. You must brighten to neutralize the stripper.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI stained my deck with Minwax stain not realizing that it was not for outdoor use. Could I use this after applying that? We love the color now but know that the wood isn’t protected. Please help
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySorry but no, you cannot apply the TWP over the Minwax. You should sand that off first.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi i posted these pics because we recently bought this cabin and it needs stain pretty bad, mostly on the decks. Do you think the “pine” 100 or 1500 would be okay over this color? My contractor is wanting a dark enough color to go over it instead of stripping. The dark oak color seems pretty dark, so I’m not sure about that color.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou cannot apply TWP over a different brand of stain. The current coating will need to be removed first.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello,
Can you tell me the results to be expected from using the clear 100 stain?
We are fine with the graying of our cedar porch, but want to make sure it is protected.
Would a colored stain provide a benefit over clear?
For maintenance for clear, is RAD still needed every 2 years?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyClear will seal but the wood will gray naturally. If you want to prevent UV graying, use a tinted color.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThanks for the quick reply.
I could not find any photos to compare how clear on cedar looks compared to unfinished cedar. Are there any on this site?
If we want to keep the graying, can we prep without using the brightener for reapplications?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe clear has no color so there is nothing to show with a photo. Just clean and reapply down the road. Very easy.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi, our new deck was stained with TWP 101 Cedartone 3 years ago with one coat. This year we extended it and have one part stained and one part is a brand new wood. After 4 month waiting It was washed and stained with Ready Seal Natural Cedar color 4 days ago. It looks totally different and like a mess (pictures attached). Will it help if it is stain with TWP 101 as second coat to make it similar color? right now, an old part and a new part of the deck looks totally different. What is the right solution to fix it?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will need to remove the RS to fix this. Good news is that it is not that hard with this kit:
https://www.twpstain.com/restore-a-deck-stripper-brightener-kit-detail-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThanks for the response. If we remove and brighter both parts (new and old), seal again with TWP 101, will it be even after? Does a new wood and an old wood look the same after sealing?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNew wood cannot match old wood when first applied. The new wood is less absorbent so will be lighter in color. It will be close but not exactly the same.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a 6 year old tiger wood deck that has been sanded, RAD treated and stained every other year with your TWP 100 redwood stain. Kinda tired of the intense red color. What is the best way to re-coat with a lighter (think Honey tone) stain?. This Honey tone stain works GREAT on my front mahogany deck and I would like to simplify my life.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi. Is the listed coverage of 100-200 sq ft per gallon based on the "wet on wet" (which is considered two coats) application method or just based on a single coat? Thanks!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySingle coat. You will average about 100-125 sq feet per gallon for the two coats.

We will reply to your comment shortlyhas anyone applied to exterior wood furniture? specifically acacia, but will likely have other species of wood furniture in the future as well.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou can apply to wood furniture as long as the wood is free from previous coatings. Just one coat.
