Is there a difference between TWP100 Cedartone and TWP101 Cedartone?

I have a wood bench we built a few years ago and am looking to stain it. Do I need to do anything prior to apply 101 stain?

Sorry but a two part question:
First, what is the difference between the cedar tone and the honey tone? Looking through the presented pictures they look really similar. The best I can tell on my iPad screen is the honey tone is a bit more gold while the cedar tone is a bit more orange. What is your professional opinion on the difference between the two colors?
Second, which of the two has more pigment to protect from UV?
Thank you for the reply  

I love the 101 Cedartone!

Any recommendations on the best brush to use to apply? 

Does anyone have a picture of TWP 103 Dark Oak on Cedar wood posts? 

Is the finish shiny or flat?

10 year old deck after prep and after 5th restain with TWP Cedartone. Good product.

live in wisconsin.  have a new pressure treated deck . Would i use twp 100 or 1500?

I live in Northern Arkansas, will be a 1st time user of TWF on a deck a contractor installed wrapped around 2 sections of the home, and has been sitting for the second year. I know i need a light power washing. I like the Cedartone Natural, does the oil base give a better shine and last longer than water base ?

I used 101 cedar on my new cedar deck 10 months ago. I want to put another coat on before the winter. Do I need to do anything more than a good power wash before I recoat with the same stain? The deck has held its color pretty well, but no longer beads up in rain.

I just completed staining my 33-year-old pressure-treated 2x4 pine decking. I live in SE MN. First stripped the deck using Restore-A-Deck with both additives, since the deck had one coat of Sherwin Williams Deckscapes Semi-Transparent Stain 17 years ago. Used TWP Series 100 101 Cedartone. See the before and after pictures. Just loved the stain color and how the deck turned out. A lot of work, especially for a guy who's 80.

This is my front porch. Can I apply one layer of TWP 101 Cedartone over existing stain or I have to remove old stain before staining TWP 101 Cedartone? It does not matter what color the porch will be after the work is done, but I do not know whether TWP 101 Cedartone can stick well on existing stain? Thanks!

⚠️ Lengthy post warning!!

I live in Oregon. In 2018 I re-stained my deck. Previous owners had applied several layers of solid stain or possibly paint on the deck flooring that I sanded off. I then used Restore-a-deck cleaner and brightener before staining. I used Ready-Seal brand semi-transparent stain in a pecan color. I’m getting ready to restain this year but have some questions. I’d like to use the TWP 100 pro series deck stain. (1) Do I need to strip or sand my deck before applying a different brand of stain? (2) Would this stain hold up in a heavy rain climate like Oregon? I have pets that love sun bathing on the bare deck, (3) will the oils rub off onto my pets? The Ready Seal stain I used last left behind a oil residue that rubbed off on my dogs coats and our clothes. It held a strong odor of chemical and oil for months after. It also made the deck slippery when wet. (4) Is this all normal stuff? (5) How do I prevent the deck from becoming slippery in the damper seasons? It was my first time refinishing a deck, so perhaps I made some rookie mistakes that I’d like to not repeat this time around. I don’t want to cover up the wood grain or drown it out with a dark stain. I’m looking to accentuate it’s beauty with adding a splash of color for protection, so I was thinking of going with the TWP 101 cedartone or honeytone stain. The railing posts were stained but never the railings themselves. The railings have never been stained, sanded, cleaned, brightened, etc. My husband was going to change the railings but never got around to doing so. The railings were just added back on this year after being stored under the house. They were taken off prior to sanding and staining the deck last.

Much thanks,
Kat

I have a deck/railings that has been stained use a solid color paint stain.  Do you have a product that I can use to go over this?  I would like to match Cedar 101

Can I apply TWP 101 to a brand new bamboo fence?

Our deck gets the direct setting sun. Our restoration company indicated that they apply two coats "wet on wet" to the horizontal boards - but my husband feels like the deck faded after only one year. He would prefer to have the deck restored every 3 years if possible. When he asked them to apply a second coat - after the first application dries, the company said that wasn't necessary. What is your opinion and recommendation??

Is the 1501 series the same product as the 101 series

Hi! my painter recommended the 100 series stain for our soffit and cover over our outside covered deck. We are installing a high grade clear cedar 1 x 4 T & G material so want to be sure to do the correct color the first time around. We are going to coat the lumber in a dry location prior to installation. I do not want to obscure the natural grain of the wood with a stain that will detract from the cedar. My question is should I be using a stain or a clear protectant? of all of the colors which will look the most natural without giving it a sheen or artificial look? I understand the goal sometimes of trying to make wood look better than it might be but we are starting with very expensive cedar and I don't want to sacrifice that. Thank you

I've been told that new wood (pressure treated pine) may only need one coat of the TWP series stains? Is this true? My new wood deck (5 months old) is ready and am unsure what to do? One coat vs 2?
