    Answer This Question

    Hi Tracy, thanks for reaching out with your question. Yes, our DeckPlus Solid Color Waterproofing Wood Stain can be applied to your pressure-treated wood. If it’s new, please be sure to allow the wood to fully cure/dry for 6-8 weeks and then clean the surface with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner. Once clean and dry, you may apply your new coating. Good luck with your project! -Angie

            Can I use this for the underside of my bridge over my koi pond? Is the solid color waterproofing wood stain water or oil based? Thank you
            ByJul 8, 2026
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            Hi Linda, thanks for the question. Behr DeckPlus Solid color stain is water-based. It should be suitable for underneath your bridge as long as it doesn't get direct contact with the water, as the coating can fail, and it is not formulated to be non-toxic for animals. Possibly, a marine base would be best. If you have other questions or concerns, please reach out to us directly. We are always happy to help. -Alex
