We will reply to your comment shortlyCouldn't find a spot to leave a "review" so posting it here - Wanted to say thanks to The Sealer Store for being beyond helpful and getting my sample orders, then my actual stain order to me so very quickly! The weather was quite unpredictable the last two weeks but we really needed to get the deck done after spending almost a month, nights after work, sanding it. The Sealer Store got our orders to us SUPER fast and we got everything done in record time. We chose TWP 1500 Pecan and it's beautiful. It dried fast and allowed us in some spots to apply in full sun with no issues. We will without a doubt stick with TWP and we feel all our hard work actually meant something. TWP enhanced all that sanding! Beyond happy with the result and will now care for our deck by following instructions read here. THANKS The Sealer Store!!!!!

We will reply to your comment shortlyAndrea, would you consider posting some pictures? We are considering Pecan TWP and it would be nice to know what wood you applied it to. We have southern yellow pine, pressure treated, but 12 years old now.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI have used the TWP ( best product out there for decks IMO and have used a lot until I found it ) the Pecan I have used on pine and Teak ( outdoor furniture) looks beautiful ! I have also mixed TWP Pecan (1/3) with cape cod grey ( 2/3 ) to get a beautiful grey for my beach house decks ( on old pine boards ). Even being beach front in Florida was able to get 2 years before have to pressure wash clean (I used oxyclean and a stiff broom ) let dry and recoated . Did this for 8+ years on a deck that originally when we moved in thought I would be replacing by now . The TWP saved it ! So easy to use and maintain . Recommend to everyone I talk to about decks and I have owned many house and used many products TWP is THE BEST !

We will reply to your comment shortlyShould the piers and beams under a boat dock be sealed with some type of sealer? I know the wood above the water line needs a sealer but what about under the water?

We will reply to your comment shortlyHi there! The product I bought from you is good to seal concrete?
-
We will reply to your comment shortlyThe SS25 is for decorative concrete, stamped, pavers, etc. Do not use it on plain white concrete. It will be blotchy.

We will reply to your comment shortlyHey SS,
I'm in the process of installing some column wrap which is cultured stone (i.e. cement). Manufacturer says it doesn't need to be sealed but I think I want to anyway, especially since it tends to chip, and weather can be harsh. Any product recommendations? I have some leftover Low VOC Super Seal 25 from sealing my patio, but I can buy something different if needed. Thanks! Pic of current job and finished concept are attached.-
We will reply to your comment shortlyYou can use the Super Seal 25 if you like.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI am looking for a sealer for my Travertine Pool coping tile. It is only around the pool edge with grout between the tiles. It is a lighter color that really shows when wet and thus looking for a sealer with a 'wet' look but does not make it slippery. Everything I find is for concrete only. Thoughts.

We will reply to your comment shortlyTry Supreme Shield SB-600.

We will reply to your comment shortlyJust got done making our screened porch into a 3 season room. Mahogny deck 25 yrs old sanded 40 grit to original color. Now to seal and seen this advice.
Will the water base penetrate the mahogny? And any other suggestions?
Thanks!-
We will reply to your comment shortlyFor UV protection, you need a stain, not a clear. Try one Armstrong Clark: https://www.opwdecks.com/ipe-stain-1-gallon.htm

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello! We need your help!
Our Ipe deck has been installed for about a year, and has gone gray. So of course we would like to put a sealant on it. So yesterday my husband (thankfully he is so willing to do these things!) did a sample area he first power washed, then used a Ben Moore cleaner product, then used a Ben Moore stripper product, and now the color (after one day of excessive heat over 100 degrees) looks like this:
You can see on the right lower part of the photo you can see the uncleaned, gray area for comparison.
So when you look at the next two photos you can see what the sample area where my husband pressure washed, cleaned, brightened, then added the Natural Stain using the Messmer sealant – he did this about a week or two ago.
In the sun, it looks even brighter. But the thing is, I just absolutely hate this color! I like the color of peanut butter, or honey, but not this dark red!! Iccckkkkkkk!!!!
Is there a different process or stain that can put us on the path towards getting a more brown color?
Many thanks for your help here!!!-

We will reply to your comment shortlyHello, my log cabin is presently stained with Defy Extreme Cedartone stain, and requires a maintenance coat due to weathering. My logs have no mold or mildew, so I only need to remove surface dirt and grime. Could you please recommend a product that would work best to clean my logs without impacting the stain. Thanks.

We will reply to your comment shortlyWhenever you recoat the Defy Stain you use the Defy Cleaner for proper prep.

We will reply to your comment shortlyGood Morning, I have been using your stain on my deck for years and it is the best product hands down! I now have a new storage shed that has the T1-11 plywood rough hewn siding. I would like to have your recommendation on which stain to use on this wood. Thank you, John Vida

We will reply to your comment shortlyI live the Las Vegas area. I have a pebblestone aggregate epoxy driveway. What sealer should I use. My wife likes the driveway to be shiny. I ordered the samples for SS30 and the sp600. Also I am not planning to apply the samples until late Sept. when the weather is cooler. I was told it is too hot to apply sealer on a driveway in the summer here. Is that correct and what temperatures to you suggest to do the job. I have 640 feet to seal. How much sealer do I need.
thanks
Jeff-
We will reply to your comment shortlyLook at the SS30. About 6 gallons. You can apply when temps are between 50-90.

We will reply to your comment shortlyI just got delivery of 2 samples the supersealer 30 and the supreme 600. Can I wait to September to apply them to the driveway since I live in Vegas area and it is too hot to apply now. Will the samples dry out by late September. Once put them down we will choose which one to order from yourselves/
Thanks
Jeff
