Questions & Answers
How long do you have to wait between applications?
Hi Greg, thank you for your question. We recommend giving the Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer at least 1 hour to dry before recoating. Have a great day! -Adelina
Hi, I applied two coats of the Cordovan brown solid stain and I waited about 4 to 5 hours before walking on it, but our patio is surrounded by dirt and every time I walk on it It’s leaving footprints Did I not wait long enough for it to cure?
Hi Stephen, thank you for your question. As it turns out, the Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer needs at least 24-48 hours to dry before it can withstand light foot traffic. I recommend letting it dry for at least 72 hours before cleaning the surface with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner to remove the dirt and footprints. Have a great day! -Adelina
Can this product be applied over oil base satin
Hi Bill, thanks for reaching out. We don't recommend applying this stain over an oil-based stain. Instead, it's best to remove the previous stain first. Good luck with your project! -Christina
Graco spray tip size for application?
Hi Allan, thank you for your question. Our Transparent Waterproofing Wood Finish can be sprayed using an airless sprayer with a .015"-.019" tip and 60 mesh. Spray at packaged consistency. Have a great day! -Giovanna
Can I apply second coat after more than a week?
Hi Dave, thank you for your question. A second coat of Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer can be applied after more than 1 week has passed, as long as the surface is clean and dry. It may be best to use the All-In-One Wood Cleaner to ensure that there is nothing on the surface that will impact the adhesion and performance of the second coat. -Adelina
behr semi transparent cedar deck stain does it have red undertones because our HOA says no red under tones?
Hi Angi, thank you for your question. Cedar Naturaltone (ST-533) is a warm toned color. As semi-transparent finishes are influenced by the original color and tone of the surface, it may be best to try out one of the 8 Oz samples on a small inconspicuous area to test the color. Feel free to reach out to us directly if you need any other assistance with your color. -Adelina
Our deck was stained with his several years ago and now it needs to be restained. Does it need to be completely stripped down to bare wood?
Pressure wash it with some good detergent from Home Depot for outdoor washing, then rinse it off real good. Wire brush and sand any loose pieces of paint away and you’re good to go forget about that cleaner they use it’s just gonna cost 73 yr old homeowne
Hi LandJ, thank you for your question. The Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer doesn't need to be stripped off. Instead, we recommend making sure that the surface is in good sound condition before removing any loose coating. Then, clean the surface with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner to promote adhesion before recoating the wood. Please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions. -Adelina
