      ProWood 4 in. x 4 in. Pressure-Treated Cedar-Tone Pine Ball Top Finial Can this be painted?

      Answer This Question

      Mcce, yes, this post cap can be painted. It is important to ensure that the post cap is fully dry before painting to achieve the best results. To determine if it's time to paint, perform a water test by drizzling water onto the wood. If the water beads, the wood is still wet. However, if the water is quickly absorbed into the wood, it's ready to paint. Be sure to test multiple areas of the surface to ensure proper coverage.

          Answer This Question

          Larry, The screw is embedded into the post cap, for that reason it would not be able to be easy removed.

            Can the 1 1/2" bottom screw be replaced with a longer bottom screw?
            ByApr 8, 2023
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            MDRS, This screw is embedded at the bottom of this finial, by attempting to change out with a longer screw, may increase the chances of it cracking.

                      We have been having problems with birds building nests on the posts for our porches. We put one on top of the 4 posts and they are deterring the birds from building nests. Ongoing problem solved! The quality of the finials are excellent, especially for the price.

                      Poor quality, not solid
                      Do not buy this fence post ornament. The price is good and it looks nice so I bought 20+ of them to replace the 25 year fence caps that were original to my fence. However, after only 2 months on my fence 4 of the ornaments are splitting badly. Am already trying to glue and clamp them. They are constructed out of multiple pieces of wood and are not solid at all.

                        Product is extremely supptable to cracking and splitting. Screwdowns on the balls were rusted and corroded. Had to clean them before use. This balls have obviously been sitting around somewhere for quite some time. Had to repair the splits in the wood. Will not be ordering again. Need to source them somewhere else.

                        These ball cap posts look great on our new backyard fence and gate. I stained them a darker color so that as the wood darkens and ages on the fence, the ball caps are a similar color.
