Questions & Answers
I did our fence in semi transparent in padre brown. Not really liking it and thinking about going solid color in the spring. I would use the same color just different finish. What prep would I have to do to complete.
I would sand the current finish and apply new color/finish, but I believe the orig finish will blend with new color and may not like . If current finish is solid, then sand, apply new color. New color should cover old. AI may be a different approach. ??
Hi Kathryn, thanks for reaching out. You can certainly apply our Premium Solid Color Stain over the semi-transparent stain. To prepare the surface, simply clean with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner and allow to dry. Then, you can apply the solid color stain following the spread rates. If you need more help, feel free to reach out to us directly. Have a great day! -Christina
Can you use foam rollers
Hi Guido, thanks for reaching out with your question. When applying our Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer, we don’t recommend using a foam roller. Instead, I can suggest using a high-quality nylon/polyester brush, a 3/8” nap roller, a pad applicator, or an airless sprayer using a .015-.019 tip and a 60-mesh filter. Good luck with your project! -Angie
What is the lowest outside temperature for applying? Is 60° too low?
Hi Kschultz12349, thanks for the question. The recommended application temperature for our semi-transparent wood stain is between 40-90 F and below 50% humidity. I hope this helps! -Alex

Hi Bick, thank you for your question. The Transparent Waterproofing Wood Finish will have a flat finish. Have a great day! -Giovanna

I applied one coat of Cedar Naturaltone a year ago. I intend to redcoat with Chocolate Semi-transparent. Is two thin coats still necessary or will one coat be sufficient?
Hi Danny, thanks for the question. Since the stain was applied over a year ago, I'd recommend applying 2 coats of the new stain. If you have additional questions about your project, please reach out to us directly. Our customer care team is happy to help. -Ronald
