We will reply to your comment shortlyThe previous owner stained our deck with TWP shake and shingle in 207 Butternut Brown. Which product do you recommend (Kansas resident) and what color would be best. Still have plenty of color on posts and pickets below the deck. Don't want to have to strip it all off beyond pressure washing.
would hope for something just dark enough to blend with old stain.
Thanks,-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the same color and series. Prep with the Gemini Restore Kit.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am planning to use Dock Revive this summer. I currently use TWP 100 dark oak stain and would like a color match. What is the best gloss acrylic paint to use?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyKen, does not matter on the brand of Gloss acrylic latex paint for the Deck Revive. Any will do.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a Epe deck in Oregon I want to seal it but do not want a color do you have 100 in natural
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe TWP comes in clear. Clear will not give you UV protection though from naturally turning gray.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am staining new cedar for a dock deck in fresh water. Which of your products with use be best.

We will reply to your comment shortlyGood morning. We are refinishing a cedar deck and choosing between the 100 and 1500 series. The deck gets full sun and we live in non-coastal North Carolina. Can you please tell me which would be best and why. Thank you.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIn NC you can use either Series. They both will work equally as well in your state.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you for your reply. In the future could we apply the 1500 over the 100 if the low VOC becomes the standard?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyAs long as you prep correctly, yes.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe are looking for good semi-transparent stain for our deck that is some years old. The deck that is in Oklahoma is exposed to strong sun much of the year and heavy rains. The current stain from another company is peeling and cracking, and my husband has started sanding the deck. Which f your semi-transparent stains do you recommend for us? Will it be difficult to change color from our current greenish gray to e.g. cedar color or pecan, or should we stick to your grey color stain from the TWP 100 series?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyMakes sure the all of the old stain is removed. After the sanding do a final prep with our Gemini Restore Kit: https://www.twpstain.com/gemini-s-restore-a-deck-cleaner-and-brightener-kit
Use the 100 Series. If you switch from gray to pecan later on, you will need to strip off the gray.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am in St. Louis and I have an eastern redwood fence that is currently stained with a redwood color. It is ready for power washing and staining again and I want to go with a bit of a darker oil based stain and color. Which TWP series do you recommend, and which colors should I consider?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs the old coating TWP? If not, you will need to remove the coating by stripping and or sanding before using the TWP. Any color that you like will work. Try the 1500 series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe have a house in NH. The porch and steps need to be protected from another winter. What do you recommend?

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi Mark, prep with the Gemini Restore Kit and stain with TWP 1500 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI live in Michigan and have huge deck with two levels. Most of it is covered but the uncovered portion gets lots of sun in the summer and tons of snow in the winter. The deck currently has a stain on it which a staining company will pressure wash and strip accordingly. My question is two-fold. Does Michigan allow the 100 and which is better given the weather conditions, the 100 or 1500 series?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the TWP 100 for Michigan. It is allowed there.

We will reply to your comment shortlydo you have a list of log home refinishers using TWP in western Minnesota.
Thanks-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, sorry but we do not.

We will reply to your comment shortlyDo you offer a semi-solid oil based stain?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHi Seth, we currently do not but we will soon! New semi-solid colors are in the works for 2018. Sometime in the next couple of months.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe live in Louisiana and We're needing to re-stain our cedar railing. we have already stripped the old stain off. our railing is in the direct, very hot sun and weather. Before we stripped it some of the railing was black and had a lot of green mold. I need to know if the 1500 or the 100 series is best for us here.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, use the TWP 1500 Series.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWhich product would be best to restain my house in Lake Tahoe Calif. It was last stained when built about 10 years ago with Perservawood. TWP has been highly recommended but I cannot decided between the 100 series and the 1500 series.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe TWP 1500 Series is what you will need for CA. It works best for vertical wood siding.

We will reply to your comment shortlyMe again... are stain pads and brushes ok for application to a cedar FENCE? I forgot to ask specifically for a fence and not a deck...I would be using the twp stain on my cedar fence... just want to apply it with correct equipment... can you comfo:). Thank you ?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, but you could also use a pump sprayer. Apply to a small section at a time and then go back over that area with a stain pad or brush to ensure an even application.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs there a specific type of pump sprayer? Do you guys sell them?

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, we have a redwood vertical siding house built in 1970- we are about to power wash it and are deciding on which stain to use- which would be best the redwood 1500 or 200. Then we’re thinking of using California redwood color 1500 for the decks
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou will need to use a stain stripper while pressure washing and then neutralize with a wood brightener after. Use the Restore A Deck stripper/Brightener Kit. The old coating needs to come off fully before using the TWP. Best to use the TWP 1500 Series for all wood. The 200 Series is for Shakes and Shingles.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySince we have redwood wood -is it best to use the redwood color stain? How would the California redwood stain on the decks contrast with the regular redwood stain on the house? Or use one color for it all?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou can use any color you want for this. Best to test some samples to be certain as colors when applied will vary based on your wood age, type of wood etc.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe applied TWP 100 in Rustic to our 700 sq ft pressure treated pine porch floor, railings and spindles 2 years ago. It has held up well but are not so pleased with the red color. We are now adding cedar corbels and cedar shutters and would like to apply TWP 1500 in Dark Oak or Dark Walnut to achieve a somewhat overall consistent color fanily to new cedar corbels and shutters as well as changing the color on the old previously stained pine. What do you recommend for successfully achueving desired results?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTWP below answer is the safest route, but it couldn't hurt to get some of the samples. You might be able to go say a 3-1 ratio dark walnut to 1 part Rustic for the new areas. Flip the ratio for older areas completed prior. There will always be some variance when you sealing new and old wood even if you were the exact same sealer. The newer wood will have tighter cells as the older areas are ages and will absorb more sealer. You might be able to play with them to get it close. Restore a deck is by far the best stripper (it does take some time) but you'll safe yourself a lot of time and some money if you can make a color that works. If the people at TWP are ok with it, you can email me at Willsonconstruction@hotmail.com and send me some pictures and I might be able to steer you a little better. 408 309-2811....

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello,
When switching from the Rustic to Dark Oak or Balck Walnut, it would be best to remove the Rustic. Use this kit for the prep: https://www.twpstain.com/restore-a-deck-stripper-brightener-kit-detail
