    I have a cedar sided house that has been stained with 101 cedartone all its (30 year) life. Can I switch over to Cape Cod Gray? If so, what would the process be?

    Water just sits in the middle of the deck or at least a couple hours I was wondering is there anything I should do prior to staining next spring. It's been weathering for at least 6 months

      There is not anything you can do outside if drilling holes and I am sure you do not want to have holes in the floor.

        If water just sits there like that, the stain will not soak into the wood. Right? There has to be something I can do for that section.

          The issue is you have no drainage. You cannot stain it if wet. Might want to ask your builder for advice.

    2 years  ago I refinished my old deck after sanding off the paint and prepping it with Restore a deck. This year my stairs collapsed and needed to be replaced. After they have weathered a bit I will also stain them with TWP 100 Cape Cod grey.

    Applied the 105 Cape Cod sample to new (about 1 year old in covered storage) KDAT 5/4 decking...used the bottle over approx. a 1' length of board. The color is imperceptible...2 or 3 people who looked saw nothing. This is not like the photo's. Any idea what might be the issue?

      This has to do with porosity of the wood or lack there of in your case. You cannot stain new wood until it has weathered outside fully for 4-12 months and then is prepped. This makes the wood more porous and gives a richer color.

    I have 10 year old deck and fencing that has been protected with twp cedartone. If I were interested in changing to Cape cod gray could I power wash and go over or?  I just ordered a 5 gal cedartone then informed by the boss that she would like gray.

    We are thrilled with our TWP Cape Cod Grey 105 deck stain. Since there is only one color of gray from which to choose, we were unsure whether the Cape Cod would match our home and the deck rail. PERFECT! The shade is lighter than we anticipated, but we love it! This was the first stain application to our Pressure Treated Wood deck in Alabama. We are hoping the stain will tolerate cleanings and greatly hinder the mold and mildew growth here on the lakeside. The stain applies sooo smoothly, and the wet-on-wet method works perfectly. I am hoping we have not "overdone" the stain, and the semi-opaque is perfect! Does it appear that we have applied too heavily? Is applying too heavily possible? We are well pleased with the grain that is showing through. We are also hoping two years from now the stain will have been durable in protection of our deck. It is difficult to contain our excitement as we have been slowly prepping the deck Spring/Summer ... and now Autumn is here. Thank you, TWP, for such a product! We researched intermittently for over a year and could not come up with reviews of another product to match yours. TWP was our selection, as is visible. We sum our thoughts with, "Loving It."

        I want to post an update about our TWP Cape Cod gray stain job.  It's perfect--absolutely perfect!  The only problem we have had is the one which you warned about--do not apply over mold.  We had cleaned our deck but delayed a couple weeks before our application of TWP.  Because we do not have gutters, a small amount of daily dew and a bit of rain had dripped and caused some additional mold.  We applied the TWP over these mold areas which was a mistake.  We have light "peeling" in the mold areas.  We are contemplating a light sanding job, a reapplication of Clorox limited to the moldy areas, and then a new staining with a hopeful blend into the current stain.  Do you think this will work, or should we wait until the 2 year timeframe?  We are puzzled as to how to correct our mistake concerning the mold.  Thank you ... and we are convinced TWP is the best stain ever :)

          It is probably more of a water issue than mildew. You can try and spot fix it.

    Looking at Cape Cod gray stain in the 100. Will be for new cedar fencing in Texas. Should I use any prep, wait for the cedar to weather in a little, or apply right after install to new wood? How long to weather if so? Thanks!

    Hi, I finally finished up sanding my deck today. Prior to sanding I stripped it. Is it okay if the deck gets wet before putting the brightener on? Rain is now in the forecast. Also, how long do I have before I must stain following the brightener application? Thank you.

      Rain will not harm anything. Stain within a couple of weeks.

    I stripped my deck with RAD stripper and then had to sand the entire deck to get all the stain off. I sanded the deck and plan to brighten with RAD brightener. I don’t have the cleaner. Is it okay to just apply the brightener without using the cleaner. Because I sanded the entire deck it appears clean. What are your thoughts? Thank you for all your help!

    I stripped my deck today with the RAD stripper. I’ve got some spot that are to strip. Is it okay Or is there any harm if I let my deck dry and then sand before I put the brightener down? Thanks!

      You can sand the spots off but be careful as if you over sand, the stain may take lighter in those areas.

        Would it be okay if I lightly sanded the whole thing? It still wet, but there is also white film that appears should come off.

          Yes, you can do this. Use 60-80 grit paper.

            And then after sanding, I should rinse and put the brightener on, right? Thanks.

              As discussed...I stripped my deck with RAD, but had numerous areas that didn’t clean up very well. Now, I am going to have to sand the entire deck followed by the brightener. How soon do you recommend I get the deck sanded and brightener application applied? There is lots of rain in the forecast.

                  Hi, as I mentioned earlier, I stripped my deck on Tuesday, but had to sand the entire deck today with a big commercial sander due to the amount of old stain still on the deck. I am wondering if it’s still necessary to apply the brightener before I stain? Thanks!

                    Do you think I should put one or two coats of stain down. I am using cedar tone. Thank you so much for all your help.
