We will reply to your comment shortlyWhich clear stain is best for cypress house?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyClear with no tint means it will not prevent UV graying. You must have a tinted sealer to prevent the graying. Look at any of the tinted colors in the 1500 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyNew deck was built June 2023. Now its Nov. 2023. Pressure Treated Pine. Never stained or sealed. Middle Tennessee area. Uncovered area gets full sun most of the day. Covered area gets less sun and is way less weathered. Does that matter? Covered is also screened in and has rug and furniture. We are looking for more natural color, would TWP 1530 Natural be a good choice? We were hoping to seal and stain before December. Too Cold? What if it takes 2 days to seal and stain? Thanks for your time and suggestions!

We will reply to your comment shortlyThe lightest tint is Honeytone. See photo album:

We will reply to your comment shortlyI live in Charleston SC and have 8mo old deck im looking to stain/seal. 1/2 is covered and rest gets limited Sun. Which would. Be best option to protect the wood? Wood doesn’t traditionally hold up long due to our climate. Thanks!

We will reply to your comment shortlySee here about new wood: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
Use the 100 Series after the prep.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI live in New York and have a 20yr old, well weathered PT deck. I have been using an oil based semi solid stain for years now, but seems that's no longer allowed. What is the best product for me and do I need to remove old stain (as I said very well weathered, hasn't been re-stained in 3-4yrs)?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, you will need to fully remove the current stain. Post some pics for advice. TWP 1500 Series would be the correct stain to use after.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI need to know what works best for a composite deck(similar material as trex). I was wondering if the TWP semi solid would work? How long does it take to receive product? Thank you for your help, Dianne Binder. binder04@aol.com is this product available close to Greeley CO?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUnfortunately, the TWP semi-solid is not allowed to be shipped to CO.

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyis there any difference between 1500 and 1501 with regard to UV protection?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 1500 Clear has no UV protection as it is not tinted. All of the tinted colors will have UV protection.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi, I'm looking for stain remover to remove black walnut stain TWP 1504 from some parts of the house pine wood siding. Do you think that "TWP Gemini's Restore a- deck cleaner & brightener kit" will help or not? If not what do you recommended? The black walnut TWP1504 is too dark for me I'm thinking now about Rustic oak or Dark oak.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe are redoing a pine log cabin that was built in the 70's. We have sanded down the logs and are getting ready to stain. I have used the 100 series Pecan to create a sample on a piece of actual log and I like the color using only 1 coat. Is it recommended to use 2 coats or will 1 coat work fine? my only worry is that 2 coats will make it much darker.
-
We will reply to your comment shortly2 coats wet on wet is the correct way to apply.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have seen several discussions comparing 100 series and the 1500 series stains, but I am still confused! I am in a state that allows 100 series. Since I am able to use either series on my weathered western red cedar deck, which is the preferred?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThey both work equally well in most scenarios. There is not a preferred Series that is "better".
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI was confused by the terms "standard formula" for the 100 series, and the "new and improved formula" for the 1500 series. It sounds like this is a bit of a misnomer?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe TWP 1500 is a new and improved formula of the old 500 Series that has been discontinued.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOK! That was the part I was missing! So am I correct that both the 100 series are comparable, and the only time 1500 is necessary is when you are in a prohibited state? Otherwise 100 series might even be preferred because of better penetration?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes.

We will reply to your comment shortly24 year old deck. 31' x 12', approximately 75' of rail cap at 3' height. Steps fit deck footprint so were not added separately. Unknown wood type. Has not been touched in the past 7 years. Unknown last date / type of stain. Based on appearance it appears to have been a transparent stain. I have access to a pressure washer (in the photos, deck has just been pressure washed over past 2 days...top and bottom of deck). My primary concern is maintenance / longevity, with aesthetics being 2nd place. I'm going to be re-applying treatment to the entire deck (including the bottom). Posts on top of the deck are 8' 6x6 posts. Bottom posts are 9' 6x6 posts.
Looking for recommendations on products needed and quantities.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the TWP 1500 Series for this: https://www.twpstain.com/twp-1500-series
