    I would not sand but use the Restore A Deck Stripper then the Brightener to prep. Once done you can lightly sand with 60 grit if needed. I would suggest the 100 Series.

    I have an 8yr old cedar deck. Sanded it two yes ago and put on Cabot Australian timber oil. The strain has peeled. Last weekend put on a deck cleaner. And finished right before it rained. Deck looks awful so am planning on sanding. What are the next steps. Do I have to use a cleaner and brightener again? What stain will hold up in a mn winter. Also what's a good time frame. It looks like rain here for the next week. Can I sand then wait to apply deck brightener.

    TWP is not compliant for Canada and cannot be shipped there or sold there. We cannot suggest that you break the law and bring it across the border.

    Location = Southern Ontario. Raised back deck, two levels, plus wooden Gazebo. Age 15? years, probably basic pressure-treated wood. Heavy mildew, and will be cleaning thoroughly. Some wear, three boards to be replaced. Never stained.
    Can you please recommend colour?
    Also, do you ship to Canada or must I have shipped to US address & bring over?
    Thanks!

    1. We are an online retailer.
    2. You cannot blend the 1500 with the 100. Stay with the 120 Pecan.

    I had used the TWP 100 stain on my deck in 2011 and have recently applied the rest of the can that was left over to part of my deck. I have looked all over Omaha and am unable to find a store that sells this product - Lowes said they might have discontinued it. With that said, I have 2 questions:
    1) Is there a store in Omaha that sells your product?

    2) Is there a difference in appearance between the 100 & 1500 series -- I have used the leftover can of the 100 series and was only able to get half the deck done. If I order the 1500 for the other half, will it look different if I order the same color (pecan)?

    Thanks,
    Christine

    The 100 Series works great on vertical cabin walls.

    1) 10 year old bevel sided cabin
    2) Rough Pine
    3) Wood condition is good after I power washed and used a siding/deck cleaner.
    4) Stained when built with Behr Transparent Stain - nothing done to it since first staining.
    5) 1 1/2 story cabin 1027 sq. ft.

    1. Yes
    2. Yes you need to clean and brighten
    3. Not on newer wood.
    4. That amount sounds correct.

    1. 6 months (over winter).
    2. western red cedar rough sawn siding
    3. looks very fresh
    4. No previous treatment
    5. Bevel with some board and batten siding on a small house on east slope of Cascades in Washington State. Winter snow and cloudy. Somewhat dry, sunny summer climate.

    Is TWP 100 best choice?

    Both 101 and 115 test samples look very good, applied on raw wood with no cleaning or brightening. Is cleaning and brightening necessary?

    Wood is thirsty. I assume that coverage will be in low end of range.

    Total outside wall area (excluding windows) is about 1100 sq. ft. Should I get 2 5 gal. containers?

    You should use the Gemini Restore Kit to prep with the pressure washing.

    I just ordered your 100 stain. The deck is one year old treated lumber with no stain. Can I was power wash with bleach water and if so how strong a concentrate.

    Jeff, I would just do the 1 coat now and then a light maintenance coat in a year or so. Coverage is about 150 sq. feet per gallon. Please read this about new wood:

    My deck had hail damage, so I replaced all the horizontal boards with Kiln-Dried After Treated Yellow Pine. The rest of the rails and boards are a mix of new "green" but dried for 5 months and wood that had a solid stain that I sanded off (about 12 years old). I plan on using the restore kit (cleaner) before staining. How many coats should I apply? One or wet on wet? What coverage should I expect? I have just over 1000 sqft of wood surface...144 sqft is on a new lumber privacy fence. Thank you for your help!

    Luis, remove the Cabot ATO with the Restore Stain Stripper then use the brightener. Once the wood is dry, you could use either the 100 or 1500. Probably need about 10 gallons for the wet on wet application.

    ScottB, you must have color in your stain if you want to prevent UV graying. If you do not care that it grays and just want to protect from other elements, then use the TWP Clear in the 100 or 1500.

    Purchased a home with a new pressure treated wood deck installed Aug 2012. Since this is nice lumber am not as keen on a stain color change but moreso on preserving and protecting the wood. What is your recommendation plase?
