I was very worried and did a ton of research looking for the best stain. The problem I had was a deck that had 3 parts to it. The first had old stain and after several years added on to the deck then again last year finished phase 3. After removing the old stain with a product from a big box store I purchased TWP 101 cedartone natural. We are amazed at how it came out. If you are not looking for it you cannot tell the different years of the wood. The stain blended everything great. Thank you for a wonderful product that I am happy to tell others about.

Used 201 Cedar tone for my deck. Really like the stain but have one problem that I encountered. There used to be a planter in this location so there is no sun damage and as you can see the finished product is lighter than the surrounding deck. Is there a suggestion on how to darken this area? I tried a second coat to no avail.
Sorry, but no, it is not possible to darken just that area. The wood is less absorbent there as the wood was not exposed. Less absorbent = lighter color.
Aside from the one problem I encountered, the stain was a delight to use. I especially like the step where I wipe the excess stain off the top of the wood ( I must admit I was very hesitant to walk on the finish after applying it ). This step buffs the wood and makes it look like furniture wood. As your instruction said that also speeds drying and really gives the wood a consistent look. Great product!

Katie, i just looove the color of your deck, did you just do a 1:1 ratio?
Yes. 1 gallon each, pecan plus rustic.
New deck, cedar posts and rails, pressure treated lumber floor. Sanded with 80 grit, and stained with a TWP100 mix of pecan and rustic.
Hi Katie, please try posting a picture if you can.
I have a 17-year-old deck. I have diligently kept it stained and the wood is in great shape. I have historically followed the recommendation of a leading consumer magazine and so I have varied what products I have used. Two years ago I used an oil based Sherwin and Williams semi-transparent stain. It would not cure. In a matter of months, it had turned black with mold. Washing did not help. I thought my deck was ruined. The S-W site was full of similar complaints about the product I used.
I did an internet search for product recommendations and TWP kept popping up as the best. I had never heard of TWP.
I took the leap and did your three-step process. It was intensive as I have a two story deck. The results are wonderful. I am deeply indebted for TWP saving my beautiful deck. Pictures attached.
Thanks so much.
