TWP 1500 is a Semi-transparent Oil-Based wood stain and preservative that is allowed in all 50 states.

The new TWP® 1500 formula is designed to penetrate better, dry faster and outperform the previous TWP® 500 series formula.

TWP® 1500 Series is an EPA registered wood preservative which prevents structural damage and wood decay on exterior above ground wood surfaces such as fencing, decking, wood siding, log homes, and roofing. TWP® 1500 Series resists water absorption that causes warping, cracking and splitting as well as preventing freeze damage in colder climates.

TWP® 1500 Series is a low VOC preservative with special U.V. absorbing pigments that prevent unsightly wood graying, darkening and fading. The selected mildewcides inhibit the growth of mold and mildew which assist in preventing premature discoloration.

TWP® 1500 Series will keep your wood beautiful, fresh and looking new longer. The ease of application and maintenance will allow you to enjoy your investment for years to come.

We have used this product twice on our pressure-treated wood deck (. It applies easily and looks terrific when done. We are DIYers with limited experience with this sort of project, and had no trouble following the application directions. We had to address a lot of wood damage before applying it--severe UV damage, mold and mildew--but with the right prep, we couldn't be happier with the outcome. The second time we used it, we did over-apply a bit and had a lot of shiny excess stain after a few hours of drying. We read the tips here on the website and the next day we wiped off the excess using a light misting of mineral spirits and shop rags. Easy fix and it looks great. Never any peeling, which is just what we wanted, and it made our heavily damaged wood look better than we thought possible. I love finding a product that works as well as advertised.

    I have the 200 color 207 butternut brown on my deck and want to switch to the 1500 series. Which color is the closest to what I have now. It’s hard to tell by the swatches

      Dark Oak but it is darker than Butternut. Make sure to strip and brighten for prep.

    I have waited the appropriate amount of time for my new deck to be stained. I did the prep work with the Restore a deck cleaner and brightener. I couldn't finish the entire deck (it's quite large). Now I am waiting for the weather to give me a window between 48 after a rain and 48 hours before rain and above 50 degrees to finish the rest. Is there any wiggle room in these parameters? I live in upstate NY and I think I am running out of time and panicking that it will have to remain 3/4 finished and the other 1/4 will end up turning gray. Any tips or suggestions?

      It must be 48 hours after prep or rain to stain. It can rain after applying about 12 hours later but that varies based on the temps.

    Hi, what is the 1500 finish? It's looks like shiny. We love the colors but my wife would prefer something flater/low lustre.
    Thx!

      The TWP 1500 Series is a penetrating stain. It does not have a shine.

    Does 1500 have linseed oil in it? I'm debating between 1500 and 200 on my log cabin and was told 200 has no linseed oil. 
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 10/02/2023
      1500 is a blend of natural and synthetic oils. A very small amount of linseed. TWP 200 is paraffin-based.

        Thanks - do you recommend one line over the other for log cabins? 
        • We will reply to your comment shortly
          TWP Stains · 10/03/2023
          The 200 is used more for shakes and shingles while the 1500 is used more for log cabins.

    I have some hatchway doors being built to replace our old ones that are rotting. The new ones will be tongue and groove pine. My biggest fear is warping. Would it be ok to seal them with 1500 series before they get mounted? They are being assembled off-site.

    Do you recommend power-washing or sanding or otherwise prepping a mangaris fence (previously stained) or can the 1501 be applied over the top? Curious about the process and what additional cleaning/prep I may need to do before applying the 1501. Thanks.

    I rebuilt the posts and trimmed with new cedar of a 15 year old pergola.  The upper portion is power washed and ready for 1500.  How long should I wait to brighten and use 1500 on the new cedar posts?  Located in Michigan.

    We clean and brighten our porch every year to prep for staining with TWP 100 series. This year, due to availability, we stained our porch with the 1500 series. We have been completely disappointed in the 1500 series and want to return back to the 100 series on the porch. Could you please indicate the process necessary? Can we clean and brighten to prep for 100 series stain? Would stripping be necessary? Why?

    Is this deck ok to stain? It's a bit blotchy with mildew/algae/green stuff. 
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 08/03/2023
      The algae is imbedded in your wood grain. Try bleach to kill it. 1 part to 4 parts water. Rinse well with water when done.

        Ok do I need to re-strip or brighten? It is starting to look less blotchy as it dries out (I did it yesterday with a pressure washer) but not as clean as some other pics I've seen.

      1530 Natural is closest to the 101 Cedartone.

    I just put a coat of the Earth color of the semi transparent stain on.  Do you think it needs a second coat?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 07/26/2023
      No, and if doing a second coat, it has to be applied within 20-60 minutes of the first coat. We would leave it as is.

    I have a cedar fence that I have used TWP on previously. I don't remember which one I used but want to preserve the natural color of the cedar. It has not grayed at all.

    I have a deck that has already had 1500 series deck stain on it. It needs to be recoated. Besides a gallon of deck stain what else do I need to re-stain it? Does it need brightener or stripper?  If you can run me through the process, that would be very helpful. Thanks much!

    I had been using TWP 100 series which you no longer ship to my state. Is the 1500 series as good as the 100 and if so why do you still offer the 100 series? Can you use 1500 over applied 100 series? Lastly are colors consistent in the 1500 series compared to the 100 series
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 07/13/2023
      Strip and brighten when switching series. 

      Colors are not exactly the same between series. Let us know which color you had for closest color in 1500 series. 

      The 1500 is just as good. Most states can still use the 100 still so need to discontinue it.

    How many coats do you apply to an old deck? I asked about Cabot and was recommended to buy Armstrong but I'm also looking at TWP 1500. Which of these would you choose?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      TWP Stains · 07/12/2023
      Use the TWP 1500. 2 coats applied wet on wet is correct.

    I stained some new Pine board and batten siding a couple years ago after letting it age for 9 months over the winter.  I used Rustic 1516.  A year later and I feel like the color has become much more orange than originally when I stained it.  I’d like to strip it and re do it with Pecan 1520.  Will your stripper products allow that color change?.  If so, what stripper cleaner do you recommend?    Thank you.
