Questions & Answers
What is the best temperatura to stain my deck?
Olympic Wood Protector can be applied when air and surface temperatures are 35°F to 90°F (2°C to 32°C) and will remain above 35°F (2°C) for the next 24 hours. Avoid staining in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces.
Sprayable?
Yes, you can apply this with a brush, roller or spray. When applying by roller or spray, always back brush for best results. Spray equipment must be handled with due care and in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.
Can I use this on my brand-new wooden floors inside? if not, why not? what is a better option for 2,000 square feet?
No, this is for exterior projects only and cannot be used indoors. You need to use an interior stain for your projects.
I would like to use this on outdoor wood crafts. Could I put an exterior polyurethane over this stain to enhance surface sheen?

How long will finish last
Uh, the product description says "Protects up to 5 years on decks, 15 years and fences and siding" contrary to what the "Olympic Team" responded. I'm buying something else now that I read this discrepancy.
Wood Protector is recommended for use on any properly prepared exterior wood, including decks, fences, siding, railings, outdoor furniture, and other wood surfaces. Protects decks up to 3 years and fences and siding up to 5 years.
Does this stain contain linseed oil
No, this product does not contain linseed oil.
