How To Stain a Deck. Tips & Hacks Staining A Wood Deck.

Nice tips becuz iam stain my deck...

Love your videos!!!

Nice video. Contains in one simple video much of the info I’ve seen in other videos or just decided about throwing away brushes. We’re replacing dry rotted redwood in a house we recently bought with hardwood so this will be a tutorial for the rest of the crew (wife and daughter 😉).

can you spray stain, great crew you have to make it a easier process

can you prime treated deck boards before staining with a solid color stain

we have a walk under deck...top and underside need stain

What about prep?
New wood need to not only be dry, it needs proper cleaning and killing of any organics that are in the grain after being outside. If you don't prep, that stain isn't going to last, it will flake or peel.
We use Stain and Seal Experts from Nashville for our stains. No VOC, not flammable. All other stains on the market will flake or peel. This will not. Self leveling, no drip marks, no brush lines. You can stain in 100degree weather and its fine.

Great video thanks

What brand and color stain are you using?

HOW MOCH COST STAIN ONE DECK LIK THAT ONE ?

Any need to stain the under-side? Mine is second story. Also, any tips on protecting steel balusters on rails from accidentally getting stain on them?

I didn't use a rag that's why my deck came out blotchy and darker in spots. I can see my stop and go lines

What type or color is that?

Why not use and airless sprayer?

Using a roller applies way too much stain. Use of a stain pad allows you to control how much stain is applied, wasting far less stain and often making wiping the stain unnecessary. The object is to give the wood all the stain it can absorb, but no more. Oil stains have no chemical driers and any excess oil left on the surface will probably remain sticky forever, especially if it contains linseed oil.
A better method of applying is to only take a few boards and go the entire length of the deck. this avoids lap marks and that awkward stretching over wet stain. This is especially important if you are working by yourself.

If the deck builder used the deck screw as a deck spacer the gaps would be more consistent.

Throwing away perfectly good tools is such a disgusting waste

Seems like you've learned something since this video.

What is the color of this stain?

We hired someone to stain ours and apparently they had no idea how to properly stain with Semi transparent. Brush strokes are all over. They didn’t use any towels at all to smooth it out. :(

Do you recommend or think I should steer clear of sanding pressure treated deck with course grit before staining it? It's newer brown treated wood, dried out a couple years. Finally getting time to stain it. Some people say not to sand it, won't look good. I will be using deck cleaner and pressure washing, waiting couple days to dry then sand, dust off and stain

Great job, That's the way to do it to eliminate overlap marks.

Just throw everything away. What a sustainable practice!

Hi Idaho painter. After our the stain don't you recommend any polyurethane floor finish?

What color/ stain brand was as that?

For my IPE deck I used DeckWise IPE Oil. Deckwise recommended not to stain IPE wood or use a clear finish over the stain.

Can you use a sprayer with semi transparent?

Why so many workers on that deck...cut in. And roll

I just finished a deck. The deck boards aren't all that wet, they're somewhat dry. In general, how long do I have to wait to stain?

Do you recommend filling in nail holes with wood putty? Do you clean a new deck that has dried for 5 months?

Nice information

I have tried to stain my deck twice, with two different brands of semi-transparent stain. Each time my deck turns very cloudy after a few weeks. I don’t know what to do.

So after staining for this job did you guys have to apply a clear coat or poly?? To keep the stain from wearing out?

Wondering what stain was used? Also would recommend poles to save your knees

Do u have to do a clear coat over the oil stain?

Do you have to wipe away semi sold stain after you apply it with a brush ?

Y'all getting after it,Thanks Paint Life 👍🤠

With the grain like cutting hair 😂

Stirring stain🆗

I didn’t know you had to wipe it off

Your knees must hurt all the time. No knee pads? If could be because you are young. Wish I was, STILL. Love the show.

why are some semi transparent paints used wiped off with a rag while others arn't? ive seen some videos where people dont wipe off the excess with a rag and it looks decent, and others where they do wipe it off.

What color is this??

What product is this one ?

Great video! 🎉😮

What stain is that? Anybody please let know
Tks

Brush 2 or 3 boards at a time

You have no order to what you're doing

Wrong color, doesn’t match the house and looks cheap

Great video, Did you apply clear coat or it doesn’t need it?
