TWP and Two-Toned Decks
There are several advantages to having a TWP Wood Stain two-toned deck. Being able to match or blend the deck in better with the house with a TWP Semi-Solid Pro-Series in one of the 30 Custom Colors and using one of the TWP semi-transparent colors for the flooring or horizontal areas that keeps those areas more natural with a stain that shows all the wood grain.
When TWP Semi-Solid Colors are applied properly on vertical surfaces they are extremely durable and can last a long time. On a vertical surface, semi-solid stains can last up to 4-7 years and may only need to be cleaned occasionally. A properly done two-tone deck can really add appeal and value to your property. It may take a little more time and labor initially but as some deck owners know, the end result can be amazing.
For a Semi-Solid Stain on the verticals/railings, we suggest the TWP Semi-Solid Pro-Series. For a semi-transparent stain for the flooring/horizontals look at using the TWP 100 Series or the TWP 1500 Series.
Advantages of having a TWP Stain two-toned deck
- The ability to color match the railings and vertical wood to blend with the color of the house by using TWP Semi-Solid Pro-Series.
- The deck floor/horizontal wood is stained with TWP in a semi-transparent stain so it still has that natural wood appearance.
- TWP Semi-Solid Pro-Series stains on vertical wood/railings can last 2-3 times longer on vertical surfaces or up to 7 years with little to no maintenance.
- Future coatings typically consist of cleaning and reapplying a semi-transparent stain to the horizontal floors every 2-3 years.
- Visually a beautiful two-color look to your exterior wood deck.

forgot to add these photos to question regarding multiple stains on outdoor cedar table to blend in with new coppertone 1500 on deck floor
I used black walnut TWP 1500 on my outdoor table with the deck beneath the coppertone 1500. I want to sand down parts of the cedar table and add some of the coppertone and perhaps also parts a more reddish color to other parts in order to blend the table in but still contrast with the deck. I do have some other semi transparent stain I could use for the reddish color, but am thinking that might be a problem with the TWP 1500 series I already used. So I assume I sand down the parts I want to change, clean and brighten and then add the stain?
You would have to remove the stain 100% first, prep, then stain.
