TWP 200 Series 5 Gallon

TWP 200 Series is now available to be shipped to Canada!
The TWP 200 Series was designed for shakes and shingles but can be used for all exterior wood surfaces such as fencing, log homes, cedar framed homes, etc.
TWP 200 Series is a semi-transparent oil based penetrating finish designed to extend the life of exterior wood such as cedar shake siding, and shingles. Containing a paraffin oil, TWP 200 series penetrates wood extremely well. The Paraffin oil is a "non-drying" oil that enhances the wood cells structural stability. This greatly improves the woods life and appearance.
TWP 200 Series primary function is to enhance the structural integrity and appearance of aged roofing. The finish composition will minimize grain cracking, cupping, surface erosion, water absorption and surface attack from mildew and algae. Although the system is highly penetrative, the residual surface film is highly resistant to destructive organisms. The penetrative portion of the product absorbs into aged and porous wood, adding bulk to aged and brittle wood fiber. This restores lubricity and flexibility to brittle shingles. At 94%+ solids, these products comply with all current federal and state VOC (volatile organic compounds) regulations.
TWP 200 SERIES will not crack, peel or blister making maintenance an easy task to perform for extended wood protection.

The surface Prep Instructions of new Cedar Shakes calls for water wetting of the shakes 2 times, waiting at least 48 hours after each wetting step. This is to open wood grain and remove tannins from surface. Won't the wood grain close back up after the drying period is over? TWP200 is the product. thanks

We will reply to your comment shortly· 07/15/2020Also, how much would I need for an 80 foot board on board fence, 6 feet tall?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs it possible to get samples of the TWP 200 Series colours? I followed a link to the sample site but there was none of the 200 series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyThere are 200 samples on this link: https://www.twpstain.com/stain-samples

We will reply to your comment shortlyI applied TWP 203 to my back deck over 4 weeks ago. My parents came to visit and the rubber foot of my father's cane marked all over the surface of the deck. I took some soap and water to it, which partially removed the black marks but also lightened a patch of my stain! Now I'm left with a mess on my nice newly stained deck. What's the best way to proceed to fix this? More soap and water and scrub to remove the black marks, then a light reapplication of stain over the top? I really hope I don't need to sand the single board down and re-do the whole thing. Help!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyDo a light pressure wash with a cleaner to all wood and then a very light coat.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou’re not suggesting that I pressure wash the whole board back to bare wood are you? Just the problem area?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe whole board otherwise it will not blend when you recoat.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI received 2 samples 201 and 205. They are showing up much darker than what is portrayed in the pictures. Is even darker than the 207 Butternut Brown. I'm wondering what would cause this.
Shingles have just been pressure washed and cleaned. *** I will post pictures tomorrow.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 200 Series takes about 1-2 weeks until full cure and final color.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI put the samples on a number of different types of wood to get an idea of what to expect. Understandably, the colors will vary depending on the wood. However, I did not expect it to be so dark when applied to the shingles as it doesn't reflect the color swatches at all. What should be my next steps?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAs we mentioned 200 Series takes about 1-2 weeks until full cure and final color. Shingles are also much more absorbent in color.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyDoes that mean it will lighten a bit to be more like the top samples? Or should I order something lighter like TWP203?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI will lighten up on your wood but colors will always vary based on wood type, age, and, the porosity of the wood.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOk... thanks... ordered 10 gallons. Is Mineral Spirits the best for clean up? Any other application/clean up suggestions?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyMineral spirits is correct for cleanup.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI'm having all of my deck and rail wood replaced, but keeping the old lattice skirt. A stain was put on the lattice around 11-12 year ago. Not sure if it was oil or water. Does the lattice need be stripped before staining since it was so long ago? I can still see some stain on it.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes.

We will reply to your comment shortlyCan TPW 100 be used on new KDAT wood that ages for several months, and passes the water absorption test?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAs long as you prep wit this kit: https://www.twpstain.com/gemini-s-restore-a-deck-cleaner-and-brightener-kit
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you for replying so quickly. If the person I'm using to stain the deck has their own cleaner and brighter, can they use that?
They refurbish a lot of older decks with TPW 200.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAs long as they prep well.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI applied my TWP 203 on Sunday (3 days ago). It was on a PT deck that had weathered for 2 years, then prepped with Restore-A-Deck Cleaner & Brightener. There are a few individual boards that have a slightly deeper color and a very slight sheen when you look across them. When you touch them there's a very slight amount of residue on the surface. Should I wait another day or two, or should I wipe down the residue? There's a different feeling between the boards that are clearly "dried" and those that have a slightly moist feeling yet. Give it more time? There is sun in the forecast for the next 2 days, then a stretch of rain.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWipe it down now. Make sure to saturate all oily rags in water and lay flat to dry outside.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWhat can I do to get rid of the “film” that still remains on the wood after I’ve wiped it down? I applied a thin coat, let it dry/cure thoroughly. Wiped it down after drying like you suggested (twice, actually) and bare/sock feet still transfer oil to my tile floor inside. What’s the best way to fix this?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt will cure, just may take a few days to do this.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI noticed when placing my order that the stain colour changed.
I ordered the TWP 201 cedar tone not the 203 cedar tone gold
can you please change this on my order # JGBP088082
also I had a different shipping address and it reverted to my home address.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, We canceled your order and refunded it so you can now go ahead and reorder the color you want. Please double-check the color prior to paying in the cart. It is not possible for the system to change the color after you choose which one you want and add it to the cart.

We will reply to your comment shortlyTwo questions.
I stained an older cedar deck which was sanded with Twp 200 2 years ago with one coat. I am looking to use the same stain this year on the deck. What sort of prep is needed?
Also, are you shipping to Canada currently?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyPrep with this kit: https://www.twpstain.com/gemini-s-restore-a-deck-cleaner-and-brightener-kit
We are shipping.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI purchased 8-10 pails of the TWP201 Cedartone 2 years ago to coat my cedar house and fences. The cedar is about 10 years old, was treated with Penofin Blue Label. I stripped and brightened the surfaces as directed. The TWP soaked in well but seems darker than the color represented in the example picture and has dried with a greenish tint to it. Recently, I used some stain that has sat in the bottom of a pail for a year and a half and put it on the back of my fence. It was thicker than when new... looks great, no green tint! Is there a chance that not enough tinting pigment was added to the stain I purchased? What do I do to get rid of the green tint on my cedar? Also, I have been emptying and mixing all of the pails together for consistency and removing the tinting pigment from the bottom of pail where it gets trapped in the seam.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, that is not possible to have a pail that did not have enough tint. The batches are 1200 gallons and all are quality controlled to exact color prior to pouring and are continually mixed through the entire process. There is nothing green in the TWP stain. If you have a greenish hue then it is coming from something else like the wood, not the stain.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHow much stain is required for a deck that is about 1100 square feet if using TWP 200 stain? And is only 1 coat required?
I ask because I have ordered TWP200 before and over purchased the amount of stain I used on a 900 sq foot deck? I purchased 7 gallons previously and only used about 3 gallons.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAbout 6-7 gallons.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi - what colour in the 200 is the closest to cedartone 101 in the 100 series. I’m trying to match items on the deck. Thanks!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThey will not match but the closest is probably 203 Cedar Gold.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHi! We applied 203 to the benches, and it is considerably darker than the 101 cedar tone. Would the 201 be a lighter hue? I’d love to go with the natural but we both dislike the look of greying wood. Will the colour lighten or darken as it cures?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTWP 200 lightens as it cures in 7-14 days. The lightest color is the Cedar Gold.

We will reply to your comment shortlyDo you have any pictures (esp. before and after) of slate gray used on cedar shake siding?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWe do not but you can order a sample to test from us.

We will reply to your comment shortlyactually I was thinking the same thing and now you've brought me to my follow up question - why are there no samples available for the 200 series?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThere are. As the link I sent you mentions, just call for the 200 Series samples.

We will reply to your comment shortlyOur client wants to use TWP 200 on cedar shake shingles. We plan on staining them once before installation now and then another coat after install on site in May. They want the Ben Moore 1547 dark gray color "Dragon's Breath". Would it be possible to order your "Slate Gray" color and then have it darkened with pigment locally at a paint store? Or could we order your "Clear" and start from scratch by adding pigment?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySorry but no, that is not possible. TWP cannot be custom tinted.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOn the surface preparation, it says "allow for 4-12 months of natural weathering" is that imperative? what is the benefit for that? If we are in a time constraint, would skipping that step and just doing the bleach/water solution and cleaning prior achieve the same results?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou cannot skip the weathering and prep: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
Just wait until Spring.

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI left a 5 gallon pail of TWP 200 Series, with about 1 gallon left in it, in an outdoor shed last winter. The lid was on very tightly. Would I still be able to use it, or would the cold weather here in Toronto have ruined it?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt has gone bad most likely.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs there an easy way to check?

We will reply to your comment shortlyWhat is the best stain / sealer for a dock in Vancouver, BC. I understand it can be purchased at Home Depot. What is the best application and how long will it last?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTWP is not sold at any Home Depot or in Canada anywhere. You would have to use the TWP 200 for Canada and we would ship directly to you from this site.
