    Either would work well and both are compatible. The 1500 has a higher amount of solids.

    Any recommendation on between the 100 or 1500. Any problems using the 1500 later to restain after using the 100 initially? Is there a difference between the two?

    The lightest tint in either series is the Honeytone. Clears will not give UV protection from graying. I would personally use the 1515 Honeytone after proper cleaning.

    I have a one year old treated pine deck about 450 square feet in north alabama. It has faded to a nice color and is in good condition. I have waited a year to look into staining and need help deciding on a color and brand of stain. I want as close to natural as I can find. any suggestions??

    Brenda, you cannot put TWP on top of a failing stain and expect it to perform correctly. You must remove the old stain first.

    Colin, 2 Gallons for 1 coat. 3 gallons of doing the 2 coats wet on wet. Rough fence wood is more absorbent and the stain does not spread as far.

    I am restaining a deck around a pool. It is pressure treated wood and we used a 3 year stain from Lowe's 2 years ago. The stain did not stand up well to our hot summers. Can we use the 100 or 1500 series over the old stain and sealer?

    Small fence at both ends between adjoining home. Roughly 10' X 5 (X2) or 200 sq. ft (if both sides sq. footage counted separately). Fence is 3 months old, mostly cedar with pressure treated 4x4 posts. Not stained previously. I suspect 1 gal will do it or would you recommend 2 gallons?

    Howard, Prep with the Gemini Restore Kit first. Without knowing the exact sq. footage it is hard to give an accurate amount. I would think you would need about 5-7 gallons for the 1 coat on the new wood.

    Any color will work. That is up to your preference.

    Rosie, the Honeytone is a golden color. That may work. Have you read this about staining new decks:

    What is a good NATURAL color to stain for the first time on pressure treated wood. We did another deck on another area of our property and it was too orange.(with another product)
    What color do you recommend that is NOT orange, gray or too dark in the 100 series line? ...just natural looking.
    Thanx.

    You can use TWP again. I would use the Gemini Restore Kit to prep after the sanding. This will remove sand dust and allow the stain to penetrate better.

    I'v already sanded 10 yr old cedar deck with 80 grit paper. Previously used twp. Can I now use twp again? Should I wait. Is there any other prep necessary?

    Diane, new wood needs to weather and then prepped properly. Please read this article:

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

    I would go with the 100 Series

    Russel, the stripper and brightener will prep well but it may not remove all the oil and grease completely as that has penetrated deep into the wood.

    Thanks for the quick response. I just want to make sure you know that the reason I am wanting to stain the wood is because it very dirty looking. I have black spots (from BBQ pit, etc) all over the wood. I sprayed some spray and forget stuff and it was useless. I tested a spot with outdoor bleach and the black stuff came up after some serious scrubbing. So do you still say just use brightener after the sealer remover stuff?
