We will reply to your comment shortlyWe have a 10 year old deck. The horizontal surfaces are synthetic the vertical surfaces are treated wood stained with an unknown product. It appears to have been a semi opaque mix. For southeast Kansas would 100 or 1500 be appropriate?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe TWP cannot be applied over a different brand of stain. The coating you have on the verticals will need to be removed. Once that is done, use the TWP 100 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am in the process of building an above ground screened in porch with treated lumber as the framing and using cedar decking in Northern Michigan in the middle of the Manistee National Forest. The winters are brutal and the porch is 99% shaded in the summer. I would like a clear sealer as the finish . . . and, I would like to pre-seal the deck boards before installation. What would be your recommendation for prepping the cedar deck boards and which product would you recommend as a clear sealer.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, new wood cannot be prestained: https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
A clear with no pigment means it will gray naturally and not have UV protection. Are you okay with it naturally graying?-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, I am not looking forward to the deck turning grey. That is what I want to avoid. Sounds like the TWP 100 Cedartone would be a better choice. My main question is if there is an acceptable way to pre-stain the cedar decking (all six sides) before installing that would not cause problems down the road when it comes to maintenance? . . . or, maybe just the underside and ends before installing?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, you cannot pre-stain and best to not stain all six sides. Just the exposed wood after install. The wood needs to breathe and not be sealed on all sides.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyI am letting cedar age now before treating and then sealing? Should I use the 100 or 1500 for Northern Michigan? Half of the deck is under a screened porch in shade and the other half is fully exposed 24/7. thanks.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the 100 Series.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWe would like to preserve the natural blond color of our deck boards (not cedar). However, we see that a clear stain will allow the boards to turn gray. Is it feasible to put a clear coat on and use a tinted stain for the second coat?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo that would not work. Just the tinted stain color for UV protection.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi we just bought a log house in Iowa. Not sure when they last treated the house. Was told we need to do the inside and outside of the house. Is there special ones for in and out or are these all for outside? How often do you have to apply/should apply?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyJust on the outside. Prep correctly and then reapply every 4-6 years for a log home or as needed.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a 600 sf womanized pine wood deck that has never been stained , painted or treated that is about 12 years old. The location is about 60 miles west of St Louis, MO. It is 50% in the sun and the other 50% is in the shade. We do not want a solid stain and like the oil based application of TWP. What TWP product, color and preparation would you recommend. Half of our house has a siding color is light to medium green that blends with our hickory trees and the the other half facing the deck is a red used brick.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI'm installing a brand new cedar deck. Live in Cleveland, OH and get really every kind of weather. Intense sun and heat, rain, snow, ice and cold temps. Wanted to make sure the 1500 series would be correct for this application. Also was planning on lightly sanding the cedar deck before applying and was wondering your thoughts on that.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThank you. That's perfect. Any thoughts on sanding the surface lightly? Will this potentially speed up the drying out process?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, do not sand. That hinders the stain/s ability to soak in. You cannot speed up natural weathering.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe 1500 is correct but read this about new decks. https://www.twpstainhelp.com/prepping-new-wood-for-twp-stains/
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyCan your 1500 series be used as a stain color with a varnish top coat for exterior doors? E.g. Front doors, garage doors
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyNo, TWP cannot be top coated.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyOur customer (California) has previously used 100 series Redwood color. Will the 1500 series Redwood color match for a maintenance application?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyClose but not exactly the same.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWith TWP 1500 having higher solids than TWP 100, should it have better longevity? Ive been using TWP100 for years, but with the NC sun and heat, it would be nice to have a product that looks better longer.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyIt does have more solids and that can lead to slightly better UV protection but the TWP 1500 will still need to be redone or recoated the same as the 100 Series. It will not give extra years in life.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI searched for TWP on Amazon, and found this: TWP 1515 Honeytone Low Voc Preservative Stain Gal by TWP for $64.43. I always read reviews on Amazon, and was very surprised that there were absolutely No reviews. That doesn't make any sense to me, does it you?

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have a 6 year old cedar deck. I used Behn sem-transparent stain a few years ago, so it is peeling and looks awful. I live in Minnesota, so it has extreme weather conditions. After stripping it and starting over, should I use the 100 or 1500 series?
-
We will reply to your comment shortly100 Series. You may need to sand as well as the Behr is hard to fully strip.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, I live in Raleigh NC, we had our deck built 6 months ago it is #1 pressure treated lumber, we have some minor superficial stains that could easily be handled with a light powerwash. We want to do this correctly. what pre-treatment should we use? we were hoping to go with a clear stain but understand that would not be in our best interest. From what we are reading, we are thinking wither the 1530 in natural or 1501 in cedar which pre treat and stain would be most appropriate. Thanks for your help.. products look excellent.
-

You must have a tint for UV protection. Clear will gray naturally.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyDo you still make Rustic Oak
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyRustic and Rustic Oak is the same thing. Just removed the "oak": https://www.twpstain.com/twp-1500-series

We will reply to your comment shortlyI’m redoing 3 cedar decks each about a year apart. They all have the oxizide look(white). The homeowner wants the natural clear wet look of the cedar. What can’t i do to give him that wet look with the oxidized spots? There’s one pic that has some water in it and that’s the look he wants.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyLook TWP 1515 Honeytone or 1530 Natural.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWe live in Bend, OR (4100’ elevation). We have 2 large cedar decks that were stained new with Cabot Cedar tone, last year for one, 3 years ago for other, knowing they’d need to be redone in near future. Both decks are partially covered. Pressure washing will clean sun exposed portion, shaded area not peeling at all. Which products should we use, and do we sand or not. Hearing conflicting advice on sanding( closes pores, won’t accept stain as well vs needing a smooth surface).
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee this for prep: https://www.twpstain.com/restore-a-deck-stripper-brightener-kit-detail
No need to sand and yes it can hinder the ability for the stain to soak in if it is sanded with too fine of a grit.
-
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHi, home is near Raleigh NC area. Deck is about 6 yrs old and found to be pathetic quality pt. No budget for new now. Deck is in 100% sun, always. Leaning to black walnut or dark oak, but open to other. What is recommended product. Goal is to delay replacement as long as possible.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyHas it been stained before? If so, that coating has to be removed first. Once prepped correctly, the Dark Oak or Black Walnut would work well.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySo 1500 series is best choice? (We are clear on needed prep) Thank you!
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYes, correct.
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThx. Local dealer has sign up recommending 1 coat only. Ths site says 1-2. What would be reason for only 1?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyTWP is wet on wet 2 coats for older wood.

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWe are looking at the 100 series and trying to decide color - How dark does the "dark oak" look when applied? Would the "Pecan" be a medium color brown? What is your most popular color? Thanks
-
We will reply to your comment shortlySee this: https://www.twpstain.com/twp-100-series-stain-colors-and-photo-albums/
Cedartone is the most popular.

-
We will reply to your comment shortlyWe are going to install channel rustic rough side facing out. What is the best product to use. I am wanting to use the cedar tone. Do I need to stain all sides before installing?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyUse the TWP 1500 Series. Only stain exposed wood after install.
