    it’s been about a month since i stripped the wood and a week since i power washed the wood for the last time (after sanding) do you think i should power wash again to clean so i don’t stain over dirt?

    I am in hot/humid AL. Deck is covered so not a lot of direct sun but edges get partial sun.
    I have about 300 sq ft to seal total... deck bench & steps.
    I have used Cabot semi transparent light oak to stain bench around deck (usually takes 2 coats but I don’t want it darker). I want to clear coat deck & also add clear sealer to bench.
    Both were just pressure washed & sanded.
    What product do you recommend?
    Do you have any retailers in AL in Birmingham area?

      Hello. The RAD stains only come in semi-transparent color or solid colors and not in a clear. You also cannot apply a clear coat over your stained bench. Does not work. We sell online only.

    Hi I have just finished the applying the brightener, how long do I wait before staining? Also, I’m not too sure how to stain the ideal way. How many coats? If 2 coats how long do I wait after the first? Do I stain verticals first? Do I stain section by section?

    My deck is 12 years old, made from treated pine and approx. 480 sq ft of floor boards and about 350 sq ft of railing, skirting, etc. I am planning to use semitransparent stain on the floor boards and a solid stain on the rest. Deck currently has a solid stain (brand?). I completely sanded off the floor and replaced approx. 16 of the 6" x 16" boards (128 of the total 480 sq ft). I plan to buy the cleaner and brightener. I plan to apply 2 coats of each stain (only one to the new floor boards?) unless advise otherwise. About how many gallons of the solid and semitransparent will I need? And, how long do I need to wait to stain the new wood?

    What semi-transparent stain should I apply to a Tiger Wood deck?

    The deck is

    2000 sq ft (includes steps and railings)

    previously stained (2 years ago) now grey and weathered

    SW WA state (near Portland, OR) so gets lots of rain, sun, mildew/mold

    Do I use cleaner or stripper?

    How much cleaner/stripper, brightener, stain should I buy?

      Strip and brighten. 2-3 of the Kits. Use the RAD semi-transparent stain. About 10 gallons for the one coat needed.

      You cannot apply a sealer over the RAD Stains. No need.

    Stained PT Pine deck with Rad semi transparent cedar stain but I want it to be darker. What is the minimum time before I can go back and put the dark walnut on it. Does it matter if it has one or two coats of the cedar? It was stripped and brightened before staining....what prep is needed before staining with the dark walnut color? Would the time frame or prep be different if I went with the solid stain?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      RAD Products · 05/31/2020
      Clean and brighten for prep in 9-12 months. If you want to do it sooner, then strip and brighten.

    I got the first coat of semi-transparent down on two boards and they got missed on the second coat. Can I go back and still place a second coat after they have been drying for several hours?

      It will probably not blend or take if you do spot touch-ups.

        How many months should I wait before applying a second coat? And BTW the deck brush to apply semi-translucent is the bomb! My deck is 850 sq ft and the brush has saved my back! Thanks!

    Hello there, I am working on a project to build a small outdoor climbing wall. Would this product be suitable for use on a "B.C Pine Plywood Exterior"? Also, would I have to wait for the 1-2, or 3-6, months to apply this product?

    Hi! I'm getting ready to stain my new deck with your product! It's 800 sq ft plus railings and 4 steps. Does 9 gallons of stain, 9 bags of cleaner and 9 bags of brightener sound like enough? Thanks!
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      RAD Products · 05/21/2020
      You only need 1-2 bags of the cleaner and the brightener. The stain amount should be good.

    I have a 12x12 deck built one yr ago - southern yellow pine pressure treated with four steps. Do I need one or two gallons of stain? And will the $49 cleaner and brightener kit do the trick? Also, is the semi-transparent stain color "natural" clear or does it have a color?

      RAD Products · 05/18/2020
      Try the Dark Walnut Color.
      • We will reply to your comment shortly
        Joe · 05/18/2020
        Thanks. Do you have any real life example pictures of the dark walnut?

        Also, this is new cedar being installed. My supplier of the wood recommends sealing all six sides prior to installing. Then after install we can apply a 2nd coat on the outside if required. I've seen other sites (Armstrong Clark) suggesting for new wood to be installed without stain and to wait 3-4 months before staining.

        Do you have any issues with my suppliers recommendation of sealing first and then installing?

          RAD Products · 05/18/2020
          If new wood then you cannot stain it yet. Install, let weather, prep with a Cleaner and Wood Brightener and stain only the exposed wood is the proper way.
          • We will reply to your comment shortly
            Joe · 05/18/2020
            Thank you. How about the non-exposed sides? Are you recommending not treating them at all, even if being used as exterior T&G siding? We want to ensure that the boards last a long time and is protected against rotting and insects.
            • We will reply to your comment shortly
              RAD Products · 05/18/2020
              No need to stain the unexposed wood. Stains would not help on the backside to prevent rot or insects anyhow. It is for exposed wood protection. Cedar is already naturally resistant to rot and insects.

    I applied your stains to some test pieces of wood, and they seem to be alot lighter than advertised. The wood used is Alaskan yellow cedar. From left to right is your dark walnut, grey, light walnut, and cedar.

      Colors are based on wood type, age of the wood, and prep. On your new yellow cedar wood, it is correct.

    Good Day,

    I am looking for a solid stain for an existing deck that I stained 2-3 years ago. The deck is in full sun. Being a senior I do not want to do any extra work except putting the stain down.

    1. What product would you recommend?

    2. Secondly, my deck is 400 sq. ft. How many gallons would I need?


    3. Would I have to put 2 coats down?

    Thanks.

    Gerry

    Hello, our new deck after 4 month of weathering was covered with Thompson's WaterSeal Signature Series Clear Exterior Stain and Sealer, and then resealed after a winter. It doesn't last long, wood greyed out and completely lost water repentant properties. I want to reseal with a RAD semi-transparent. What preparation should I do? Thank you!
