    Installed a new deck in July, wondering what would be the best sun & water protector for NY. We had a lot of rainy weekends and the weather has now cooled off to mid 50's. Should I try to apply now or wait till next spring?

      Wondering if there is a certain temp to wash, clean and stain deck. Hoping to have completed before Easter but weather here in Northeast is still mid 40's to 50 degrees

          I instaled a deck last August 2018, I have bought cleaner and brightner. looking to buy stain for a 16' x 22 ' deck. Will I need to stain with 2 coats or 1? I assume i would need 5 gallons for one coat. Do you recommend 2 coats? An if so would I need to purchase 10 gallons then? Deck also has spindles with the same 16 x 22, has 8 steps to ground as well. THANKS

            One coat since the wood is less than 12 months old. As for quantity needed, use the calculator on right-hand side if on a desktop. Or give us a total sq footage that includes all flooring, steps, and railings.

    Hello, I have new steps (~4 months old), a deck exposed to the sky (grey wood photo/ 12 years old) and the rest of the deck is in a screened in porch. You can see the transition from the exposed and sheltered parts of the deck. I was planning on using a stripper, brightener, and following with a damp deck staining the same day. I do have a power washer handy. Any advice for my plan? Should I skip the stripper and use a cleaner instead? Many thanks.

      You have a little bit of old stain so use the Stripper and then the Brightener. Rinse the brightener for 20 minutes when done, making sure all suds are removed.

    I have just ordered your stain. I plan on using it on my wooden driveway, which is slanted and becomes slippery in the wet months here in the Pacific Northwest. I was considering adding an anti-skid product made for paints and stains, which is ground up walnut shells, 40/60 grit. Do you recommend I use your stain on my driveway? Do you have any concern about adding the anti-skid product (the instructions say to add it to the final coat)?
    • We will reply to your comment shortly
      RAD Products · 09/22/2018
      The RAD stain is a penetrating (not a filming) stain so a grit will or antiskid will not work.

    If I get some on a part of the deck that I later want to paint with a white Acrylic exterior paint. Will the stain affect the color or finish of the white?

    I just finished prepping my 12 year old pressure deck for staining. The total surface area including decking, rails, and steps is about 800 square feet. How many gallon of RAD do I need? Also can I apply just one coat? I have just recently heard of this product is it new to the market?

    I applied one coat onto new wood, some areas obviously didn't absorbe enough of the stain..or the user didn't apply enough...(just sayin')...can I apply another coat with a sprayer and be ok? I am assuming the wood is fairly thirsty and soaked it in.

    PS...love the product...love it!

    When you say this stain is easy to remove is it easier than Sikkens Cetol SRD to remove because that stain is a pain to remove?

    I was reading this elsewhere, "While water-based stain can typically last two to three years and is more environmentally friendly (it’s solvent-free), its refinishing process can be more work. Unlike oil-based stain, it’s often necessary to remove the old water-based stain entirely before a fresh coat is applied, which usually requires a combination of sanding, stripping, and scraping." My question is whether this is true with the restore a deck stain? can you just apply stain where needed when the stain fades or do you have to strip the stain in entirely to add a new coat of stain to areas where needed?

      The RAD stain is a penetrating stain so no, it does not have to be removed when reapplying.

    May be dumb question but how do you apply this stain? Oil based stains it appears you do small sections and then wipe the sections off with a rag. Do you wipe the stain off after you apply the stain? Do you apply water based and oil based stains the same way?

    I love the look of weathered wood. Would the clear stain on cedar railings allow the wood to develop that look?

      The RAD stains do not come in a Clear. The Natural is tinted and will prevent UV graying.

    I just finished sanding down my 650 sq/ft deck that had a failed thick gritty resurfacing type product that was peeling placed on top of a worn out redwood looking stain. To get it bare, I needed to use a Diamabrush for Decks and Docks attachment on a standard angle grinder. What a hell of a job I tell ya, but it did the job and removed the Grey resurfacing product and the stain underneath that. I am thinking of using RAD to stain and protect the hard work I put in to my deck so far. Do I need to use a cleaner or brightener at all? I'm thinking I don't since the Diamabrush is mechanically very abrasive and has exposed the bare wood and it's pores to accept a penetrating stain. Please advise I'd like to do the job right. Thanks in advance.

    I have a newly installed (4 weeks) white cedar ruff cut fence and was considering using the Natural semi-transparent stain. How thick is this product? Is this considered a latex based product? Could I spray it on with a Wagner Control Spray Double Duty airless sprayer? Would it have to be thinned and if so, with what?


    Thank you.

      The RAD stain is not thick but thin in consistency. It is a penetrating water-based semi-transparent stain. It can be sprayed without issues.

    Just put in a redwood fence with pressure treated posts. I will be using the roller/brush method of application because neighbor refused to stain his side. My wife wants our side to not get gray color and wants protection. 1. Can I apply stain right away or wait a couple of weeks without prep since it is a redwood roughcut? 2. There is no semi transparent for Redwood, which semi transparent for natural redwood look should I order? 3. Is your product just as good as oil based stain? or better? 4. What is shelf life of the stain? I would like to buy the 5 gallon but only need enough to treat 600 square feet of surface area. 5. Can I apply to pressure treated posts now?

      If rough sawn, you can stain right now. Make sure the wood is clean before applying. Colors are not dependent on wood type and any color can be used for your redwood fence. Most would use Natural for this. The RAD stains soaks in as well as any oil-based stain but will have better protection against mildew and UV graying. You will need about 6 gallons for 600 sq feet and the two coats.
