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.

I did the deck stain calc for 900sqft and it indicated I should get 9 gallons. But the Stain Info said each gallon covers 150-250sqft. Which means 4-6 gallons. So I don't over order, what would be good? This is only for a flat surface, no railings.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe used TWP 1511 two years ago. Can we apply TWP 1502 over the TWP 1511?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou can since the 1502 is slightly darker but you still have to prep: https://www.twpstain.com/gemini-s-restore-a-deck-cleaner-and-brightener-kit

We will reply to your comment shortlyLove the product. Used 1502 redwood last season here in Michigan. Need advice.. I am going to use the same product again but we had some trouble with slivers in the kids feet.. is it best to lightly sand deck boards then just blow it off and stain it OR sand, power wash then stain? Any help is appreciated thank you
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the Gemini Restore Kit first. After, if needed, light hand or pole sand any slivers.

We will reply to your comment shortlyi read new decks need to weather a bit before staining, how about wood fence, cedar wood. Will be using 1500 Ca Redwood.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee for tips: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/Same for fence unless it is rough sawn wood.

We will reply to your comment shortlyIt is rough cut wood. Make a difference?
-

We will reply to your comment shortlyDoes your stated coverage consider a wet on wet application or do i need to double?

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI was informed by a friend, that and effective manner of application could be to spray this product out of a pump sprayer. Such as one used to spray weeds around the house. Is that possible with this product?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt can be applied with a pump sprayer but you will need to back brush to ensure an even application.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have about 4 gallons of 1500 left over from 5-6 years ago. I just put a sample on a test board to compare colors with another brand. To my surprise, the 6 yr old stain went on well and once dry beaded water better than the competition (Ready Seal).My question: is there any way my very old stain is still functional? If I use it on a side fence that’s not readily seen (between my fence and neighbors fence) any chance it’ll still protect the wood?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIf the old stain mixes 1005 smooth and there is not any clumping or skinning of the stain, you should be okay to use it.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a painted cedar wood fence (3 years old) that I power washed down to the original wood surface. The natural wood color and grain appearance is absolutely beautiful. I would like to apply a water seal but am unsure which of your products is most appropriate to keep the natural color and grain appearance. Would you please assist me?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the TWP 1500 Series.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYour info here is not clear - I see both 50-90 degrees AND 45-95 degrees as far as application temperatures. What is actually recommended?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHi, how many gallons of twp 1500 for a 250 sq. ft. deck? How many coats do you recommend for Douglas fir? Also, will this protect douglas fir deck boards?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNew or older wood?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe stairs up are new and so is the railing. The planks are older. So around 150sqft if old snd 100 swft of new.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee this about new wood: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
After the wait and prep, just one coat. 1-2 gallons.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyShould I let new doug fir wood weather for 9-12 months even in snowy weather?
-
We will reply to your comment shortly4-12 months and yes.

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you. Is this a good product to protect Douglas fir?

We will reply to your comment shortlycan i apply a second coat several days later?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt may not take correctly. Do a test board and see how it dries after 24 hours making sure it is not sticky or shiny.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello,
My deck is hardwood (mahogany). Is your product a stain and sealer from weather all in one product? Which product would be best for a hardwood deck?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, TWP is a stain and a sealer. Use the Rustic color in either the 100 or 1500 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyMy new smooth cedar fence is installed in Southern California. After letting the fence dry out for one year, it was cleaned, fuzzies buffed-out, brightener applied, and finally, one coat of TWP stain #1530 was applied. (It looks awesome!)
If I understand correctly, your recommendation is that after waiting approximately 12 months, I should clean the fence, and then follow-up with a second coat of TWP stain?
And finally, what is the maintenance schedule following those initial two coats of stain? (ie; how often would I need to clean & re-apply the stain?)-
We will reply to your comment shortlyFences will last twice as long as a deck so do a maintenance coat as needed in 1-2 years and then redo every 3-4 years.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHi,
what will be the difference in process between maintenance vs. redo for the fence?-
We will reply to your comment shortlySame thing.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyso that means do the following every 2 years?
1)
Prep with gemini restore kit and pressure washing: https://www.twpstain.com/gemini-s-restore-a-deck-cleaner-and-brightener-kit
2)

We will reply to your comment shortlyThe contractor that added the skirt to my deck put the boards on the ground. Now the boards are stained with water marks. It has one coat of TWP 1500 Cedartone that is about 2 yrs old. Any ideas on how I can the stains off before I restain with a new coat TWP? Do I need to dry the ends of the boards out with a heat gun? Completely strip and sand?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will need to strip and brighten but it will not be possible to get the water stains completely out as it is deep throughout the wood.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a western red cedar fence in Oregon. I have stripped and brightened it with the RAD products. It has dried for a week in 75 degree weather. I am now ready to stain with the 25 gallons of TWP 1500 that I purchased. However, it is very foggy until 10a in the mornings right now in the fall that puts a lot of moisture/dew in the air and on the surface of the fence. Do I need to wait until later in the day to stain? It would probably have to be 11 or so before it dries completely. It also starts to get dew in the air around 6p, making for a very short work day. I have a week before the rain comes and need to get this done. What do you recommend? Thank you
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWhat to the dew dries off and then stain.

We will reply to your comment shortlyDo I have to wait until deck railings stop beading water before I can apply a new coat of stain. It will be same cedartone color? Hoping to avoid having to strip the old stain.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs the stain on the wood TWP and when was it applied?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes it is TWP Cedartone 1501. Almost 3 yrs old. Horizontal boards are mostly stain free. Railings still have stain.

We will reply to your comment shortlyOur redwood siding has been completely sanded, ready for TWP1511. Do I understand from your reply to Brian Bohenick below that since it's sanded, we should NOT plan on a 2nd coat, neither wet on wet nor a couple days later? Just one coat is best?

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a pier 980sq ft. built in October 2018. Would like to use 1501 Cedartone. How much stain do I need?
