We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a new cedar garage door on order and am considering staining it to go with the exterior of my house. I think 100 series in Cape Cod gray would be good. I live in Hawaii but the conditions are not as severe as you might think. We are a 1100 ft elevation so salt air is not a factor and the temperature never gets above 85 degrees or below 55 degrees and the door is on the leeward side of the house. Some afternoon sun but we have large overhangs. Is the 100 series a good product to use and how do you ship to Hawaii?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI am sorry but we do not ship there and we do not have any dealers there. The TWP 100 would work well but you will need to find a freight forwarder in CA to get it to you.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyBefore we go through the effort of finding a freight forwarder, is it possible to get a sample?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySorry, but we do not ship samples either.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi, we live in the mountains of western Maine. Wanted to know what is the best stain for our deck. I will only be staining the floor which is pressure treated and is in full afternoon sun.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyFor Maine, you will need the TWP 1500 Series: https://www.twpstain.com/twp-1500-series
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWhy is the 1500 series not compliant in Canada?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIs is 350 VOC while the Canada restriction needs to be 250. In the US, it is classified as a wood preservative so it can be sold in all US states.

We will reply to your comment shortlyBased on past responses it appears the 100 series is better for new decks than the 1500 series. However the comparison table indicates the 1500 series is "Best". volume solids is less in the 100 series. Would you please explain why the 100 series is better for <1yr old decks not exposed to a lot of sun? Why does it penetrate better in the wood? Thank you
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 100 Series soaks in better into new wood for most scenarios as it has less solids. Use the 100 if on new wood and it is allowed in your state. If not allowed in your state, then use the 1500 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI understand you can't provide liquid samples of the semi solid series, I is it possible to get an actual color sample chip

We will reply to your comment shortlyWhat is the difference between the 200 series and 1500 series? I have a new pressure treated deck and will be treating in a few months. I live in southern Missouri and wondered which would be best to use. I got a bid from a gentleman who said the 100 series has a lot of VOCs and did not recommend using it.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 200 is for shakes and shingles, mostly. For your state, the TWP 100 is the correct choice. See this for info on new wood: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you. Then what is the difference between TWP 100 and TWP 200? What advantage is the 100 over the 200?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 200 is not for new decks. It will not soak in correctly. The 100 will penetrate and cure better for new wood.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you. I read the above article that says to apply TWP 100 on new wood the first time because it penetrates better. My question then, is one year after the first application, do you recommend continuing to use the TWP 100 or should I switch to the 200? I understand there are more solids in the 200.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyStick with the 100.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySince I am having my new deck stained for the first time (it is well weathered), I want to be absolutely sure I'm making the right choice. My Deck staining company will apply the 100 at an extra charge since he buys the 200 in bulk though he recommends the 200. He said he will use the 100 on benches (200 on the deck floor) as the 200 can sometimes cause clothes to stain when you sit on it. It made me wonder if the 200 leaves more surface residue. I guess I am still confused by your strong recommendation on using the 100 and my Deck staining company's strong recommendation on using the 200. Can you even further clarify using 100 instead of 200 based on what I said above? Sorry to be a pest, but I feel I'm caught in the middle. You have been very helpful.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 200 is designed for shakes and shingles, not decks. The issue is when applied to a deck, it can take many days or weeks to fully cure. The 100 is the correct choice for your deck, especially since it is new.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI live in central Florida and have a 15 year old deck. It was stained about 7 years ago. Which of Your deck cleaners would you recommend and which stain would be best? It is in a sunny location.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am building new horse barn in central NC. All interior walls are lined by either 2"x6" Tongue and groove or 1"x6" tongue and groove untreated new smooth southern yellow pine. 4000 sguare feet total. There is wood stamp marks on both faces of wood which I have only been able to remove by sanding off.1. Do you recommend another way to get stamp marks off?2. Will the 101 cedar stain penetrate wood differently in sanded areas versus unsanded so that it will result in splotchy look.3. Would you recommend the 100 series for this application. The interior of lower stall walls will be subject to some manure staining and water dripping from water buckets.
-
We will reply to your comment shortly1. You will have to sand the stamps off.2. Yes, sand now and then weather/prep the new wood. https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/3. TWP 100 or 1500 Series will work.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe have a new 10 month old deck on a new build in the Panhandle of Florida. Would we want to use the TWP 100 or the 1500?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the 100 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a new deck skirt. I live in rainy Seattle but my deck faces the scorching west sun. Should I use 100 or 1500 series? What color is most like natural cedar, the cedartone or honey tone? Can I paint right away or do I need to let it age first?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee here about new wood: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
Honeytone is the lightest tint. Use the 100 Series after wait and prep.

We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you for your reply to my earlier question. The structure to be stained is new (five months exposure and dry) rough hewn cedar. How different (colorwise) will the 1515 stain be from the clear? We want the color of the natural wood to show through but also want the UV and related protections. I have used your products extensively, primarily 1530.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe live on the lake so our deck gets a lot of moisture but it also gets full sun. I prefer it to look more stained than paint. I’ve been told the solid is the most Protection. Advise? Also how much would I need to cover 1200 sq.ft.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTWP does not come in solid stains. Best to use the TWP 1500 or 100 Series. Make sure to prep correctly first. See here for amounts needed: https://www.twpstain.com/twp-deck-stain-calculator

We will reply to your comment shortlyA wood filler will not work on exterior wood and will not blend with the TWP when stained.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHome Depot has an Epoxy wood filler. A/b mix. Its sandable. I used several times and it works well. It will stain lighter but will accept the stain. I have used a permanent black or brown sharpie in the past to make it look like a knot in the wood.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHad my pergola painted and they used a sprayer for the top part and the overspray got on my brand new patio made of cement pavers. There was an area not covered with plastic and the painters didn’t realize it. What would be the best way to tackle trying to remove it ??

We will reply to your comment shortlyTry a graffiti remover cleaner and pressure washing.
