Preventative Maintenance Plan

1. Depending on the location of your outdoor project with regard to direct sun exposure, foliage coverage, etc., it may be sufficient to clean/brighten and recoat every two years. 2. If you decide to wait two or more years to perform your next cleaning/brightening, you may want to use a power washer. Be sure that the cleaner/brightener you use contains a mildewcide.

Choosing The Right Stain Or Paint

When determining the right stain and paint for your deck, consider what color will best enhance the wood's finish.

Paint or Stain Tips

If you desire to paint or stain the treated wood project, it is important that the wood be dry enough to accept a coating. The best way to determine if the wood is sufficiently dry to paint or stain is to sprinkle droplets of water onto the wood. If the water droplets are absorbed, the wood is ready to be painted or stained. If the water droplets bead on the surface of the wood, it is too wet. You should wait a few days before attempting to paint and stain the wood.

Questions & Answers

Does this wood need to dry out before painting it?

Asked by: tmoody

Could this be used as fence pickets?

Asked by: Amj
You could use them for pickets as long as you don't span to large a gap between rail. The material will warp and twist if not secured about every 3'.

1 in. x 4 in. x 8 ft. Ground Contact Pressure-Treated Board is rated 3.9 out of 5 by 46.

To get a complete flat edge we needed to rip a slight amount on a table saw on both sides. You must be selective about which boards you get, many have warps and twists.
