TWP 1500 Series 1 Gallon

[quote name=”Bob P”]I’ve been using TWP for years – great product. I’ve just put up 100′ of cedar fencing and would like to know if I can use a pump sprayer with the 1500 series?[/quote]
Yes you can. Mix well and you may have to back wipe the drips.

[quote name=”Rodger S”]Installed heart redwood deck 9mo ago (summer).
No treatment/stain so it could weather.
All red color gone and now light tan after brushing off oxidation.
What 1500 color is best? California Redwood sounds good, but is that for lighter woods to look like redwood? Or is that the best for me? I like the slight red it used to have. Thanks![/quote]
I would highly suggest you try some samples to test first and colors vary based on your wood, age, prep, etc.

In addition, prepping with the Gemini Restore Kit is key.

[quote name=”Greg Vrettos”]Hi. I have a small (4’X8′), mahogany deck I’d like to stain with the TWP 1500 product. Could you tell me about how much coverage a sample can would do? I can maybe do it with one or two sample cans?

Thanks[/quote]
You would need a gallon. Samples will not cover this.

[quote name=”Jessica Drummond”]We are planning on ordering the TWP 1500 series semi-transparent stain. Once it is applied,is it necessary to use any type of sealant or is it already included in the stain?
Thanks[/quote]
No need to seal not can you can add a seller on top.

[quote name=”Scott Szoke”]I prepared this deck by hand sanding…yes, hand sanding the old stain off to get to the original wood. The original stain was an opaque redwood, which was peeling. The deck is 25 years old. I was unable to completely remove the stain/paint in the corners of the rails and deck. I want to use a pigmented product that will cover the areas that I could not completely sand off. A deck replacement would have been several thousand dollars. Restraining/painting costs much less. Would the top 1500 satisfy my clients needs?[/quote]
You cannot cover a solid stain with a penetrating semi-transparent stain like TWP. The solid stain will show through.

[quote name=”Gerald Leeder”]Is the TWP 1500 available in quart cans?[/quote]
Sorry but no it is not.

[quote name=”TJarrett”]We’ve stained our house and decks with TWP and love the application and look. However, a week after staining the decks, they are slippery when wet. Will this subside when full set, or is there something that can be done to counteract this effect?[/quote]
TWP is a penetrating stain that when prepped and applied correctly, should not be slippery at all. If it is slippery them you may have some issues that cannot be fixed without removing and starting over. Can you reply to the email you get with a picture?

[quote name=”Gary Slocum”]Last year I stained my pool deck with 1500 Ceder Tone Stain (One Coat) on treateded pine wood in western N.Y. How should I mix the restore a deck cleaner to clean the horizontal wood before applying another coat. Should I do just the floor boards or should I include tops of railing and steps too? Thank you for help with these questions.[/quote]
Do all horizontal parts. Prep by lighting cleaning with a low concentration of 2-4 oz of powder per gallon of water.

[quote name=”Sharon Kollasch”]Back in 2013 I ordered from you some TWP stain (type 120) for my deck. The order number was a759015036, and i believe it was placed in September 2013. I need to do the deck again, and seem to have misplaced by original order slip. The price I paid was $319.98, and I was shipped to my home in Decatur, GA. I thought I ordered just one 5-gallon can, but at today’s prices, that price implies I ordered more. Can you look into your records and tell me how much I ordered then?[/quote]
We forwarded your order to you from 2013.

[quote name=”Grazyna”]I have a 20 years old pressure treated wooden deck located by the sea in Massachusetts. I applied Sikkens Cetol SRD in natural finish two years ago after power washing it with OXY deck cleaner. This spring 50% of the stain started to peel. Also some of the boards have a splits in it. What would be the best way to treat is now. I already cleaned it with Wolman Deck Brite and then power washed it. There is still some old stain left that stick pretty well to the wood. I would like to apply TWP 1500 (I wish I could use TWP 100. Can I apply it now or should I do more prepping work on the deck. The weather is getting cold at night — drops to 40 sometimes. Can I still do it or should I wait till spring. Thank you.[/quote]
You cannot apply TWP over the Sikkens. You should strip off the remaining sikkens with the Restore A Deck stripper we sell. Use the RAD Brightener after to neutralize. You can still stain through October. Just make sure it does not drop below freezing the night you apply the TWP.

[quote name=”hudsoncarvertwo”]Where is the closest dealer for the Staunton, Virginia area and does the TWP1500 come in a semi solid[/quote]

[quote name=”Tony Scarcello”]First time using TWP Cedartone and found it to dark, not like the colour sample showen on website. Is there anything that can be done to make it less dark?[/quote]
You can mix clear or honeytone into it to lighten it up.
