    A:  Hi, Jstevens; thanks for the question. Using a high-quality pump sprayer with a variable tip and then back rolling over the surface is a good option to apply the stain. Another option is using a pad applicator. If you have additional questions about your project, please reach out to us directly. Our customer care team is happy to help. -Ronald

        Q:I’d like to use this to paint our front door, which is currently a very dark brown. Do I need to apply primer to the door first? Also, should I use some sort of clear sealant afterwards to protect the paint?

        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi Chris, thank you for your question. Our solid-color wood stain can be used for an exterior front door. It's film-forming and will completely cover the existing color. Priming is unnecessary, but priming with Behr Multi-Surface Primer No. 436 is recommended for woods that bleed. It's also a stand-alone product and does not require a clear sealant to protect the stain. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions you may have. Have a great day! -Alex

                A:  Hi Nellie, thanks for the question. Our Semi-transparent Waterproofing Stain & Sealer is a great choice for a pressure-treated deck. It is durable and offers UV and weather resistance. New pressure-treated wood should have at least 6-8 weeks to dry out before staining. Have a great day! -Ronald
