Awesome deck stain. Prepped the wood and 2 hours later we stained the deck. All done in half a day!

We will reply to your comment shortly· 09/23/2019Looking for advice on which finish will give me the closest results to the top half of attached photo. For reference it is a redwood deck that was just power washed.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/12/2019I am staining a new cedar deck after waiting 4 months after installation. I did step 1 and 2 of cleaning and brightening the wood. I ordered the cedar colored stain, but it is going on much darker. See the attached picture with test patch on single board. Is there any process to test out different colors before purchasing a large quantity?

As for the color, you have rough-sawn cut wood and that makes the stain darker since it is very absorbent.-
We will reply to your comment shortly· 08/12/2019Thanks for letting me know. This is my fence when it is wet, whiich is the look I want. Is the natural finish the likely choice for me? Also, will completing steps 1 and 2 of the prep process lead to any trouble since it is rough sawn wood?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/30/2019We will be restaining a 2 year old redwood deck that recently was treated with an inferior product that did not penetrate, only formed a film. We will not retain the railings because they look ok and we are trying to save on labor expense now, focusing only on the deck boards. What RAD stain color for the deck boards will be closest to a redwood stain previously used and still visible on the railings?

We will reply to your comment shortly· 07/02/2019See photos below of the existing "semi-transparent" stain on the boards and railings. Looks semitransparent on railings but semi-solid or solid on the boards. We will sand down the boards later this Fall but want to match the railings.

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/27/2019I already bought dark walnut. Was thinking of using that for the railings, and light Walnut for the floor boards and stairs. How do youall think it'll look?
I'll need enough light Walnut for 700sq ft. How much should I buy?
It's a 5yo pressure treated deck which was stripped of a semi solid stain and brightened.
Here's a pic pre prepped -
We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/08/2019My 24x15 pressure treated pine deck came with my house with a thick finish from Rustoleum called Deck and Concrete Restore. Knowing it was too thick to sand, I have (painstakingly) hand scraped it off and plan to sand the remaining glue and bits to bare wood with a big rental sander. If I sand to bare wood, do I still need to clean and brighten, or just move on to stain? With sanded wood, will it need 2 coats? There are a few replacement boards which are much lighter. Will I need to stain them differently to match? (Rails are painted so no worries there.) Thanks!

We will reply to your comment shortly· 06/07/2019I'm going to be staining a new cedar deck (after about 3-4 months of weathering). Which color stain would you recommend for cedar wood so that it will look as close as possible to the color it has now?
As recommended, I plan to use the cleaner/brightener and then stain with a semi-transparent stain with 1 coat since this is new wood. -
We will reply to your comment shortly· 05/27/2019So happy with how my deck came out with RAD in Cedar. (have some new boards I'll stain at a later date). Very happy I went with this product. Thanks!
