    Couldn'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!!!!!

      Andrea, 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.

        I 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 have a refurbished Ipe brazillian hard wood deck. We are have trouble finding the right type of sealant to prevent water damage. We have tried a few sealants and stains and when we pour water on the surface we have visible water marks. I need someone who knows what to do. Thank you Richard

    I just applied the first thin coat of supreme shield 600 SB.  How many hours must I wait before applying the second coat?

    I usually clean and brighten yearly. Last year was the first year that I c/b and used Messemers Red M on my IPE deck tiles. I believe the color should have been different. I just purchased the Stripper and Brightener. Is that the correct way to go?

    I have a 12 year old Timber Tech composite deck. Main body is Teak and trim pieces are Black Walnut. The deck has faded pretty badly. Still looks like new when it gets wet but dry...uh uh. What can you recommend I use to refinish it? I heard that Messmer's UV Plus was what to use on composites but which colors to use to match up well(great to see you have 8!). Is there a neutral tone that would still bring out the colors? Or, another product?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have a pressure treated deck for my pool installed last December. It is in Northwest Central Ohio and is in direct sunlight, no shade all day. My wife wants white railing then the deck gray. Also we have treated lumber underneath the deck as skirting, as we use it as storage for pool toys. Probably will be gray. What is suggested? I am torn between restore-a-deck and Defy. Should I use solid stain for both verticals and horizontal surfaces? Or what is your suggestion?

      Use the Restore A Deck Solid stain in the white for the verticals and the Restore A Deck in either the Solid stain gray or the Semi-transparent gray for the floors. Make sure to prep first. Clean and brighten the wood.

        is there cons to the solid on floors versus the semi-transparent?

    I purchased 15 gallons of SB-600 and will apply on 5 month old pavers. Do I need to do anything special to deal with some effloesence?

    I'm from Ontario, Canada. Stripped all the previous stain from our 33 year old solid but weathered deck with lots of cracks and knots in wood. Thinking the TWP semi solid stain for the deck? Any suggestions on the best product to use?

    Hi guys. I really like your website. Everything needed to refinish my deck is clearly stated. However…I am confused about the finish. I want to use Defy Extreme, semi-solid cedar for the deck and maybe the redwood for the railing. But what is this separate category of Defy Extreme stain, or whatever it’s called. How does this differ from the nano particle product? Seems like there are too many options and not enough information to make a sound decision. I suppose I want you guys to tell me what to use. Thanks,Paul

      There is only one Defy Extreme Stain that has nano particles in it. It is semi-transparent, not semi-solid. There is a Defy Extreme Stains for Hardwoods such as IPE and Mahogany that is different and does not have the nano.

      You fully take off the top of the can by prying up the tabs.

          Hello,
          This product has never come with a pour spout in the lid and it is not an option to add it.
          Thanks

    I purchased 7 gallons of Defy Extreme Wood Stain (Driftwood Gray) in June of 2018. I used the 5 gallon pail and have two 1 gallon pails left over – they have never been opened. I want to protect the deck again this year. Can I use the left over stain & purchase three more 1 gallon pails? Would I need to treat the left over stain differently than the new ones?

      The shelf life is about 3 years so there is no guarantee that the older cans from 2018 are still good. Probably best to get all new cans this year.

    Hello. We applied our TWP150 stain last fall (so it has been about 8 months now) and it seems the stain is fading away, almost like it needs to be restained? We have a portion of our deck that is covered and it looks great there. But, the portion hit by the sun seems to be fading a lot. I followed the install instructions to a T, clean, dry, etc. I will say there were a number of "fuzzies" on the wood before we stained it, so if I were to stain again, I would likely sand the part of the deck that is exposed to the sun. Any suggestions? Thank you!

      Just clean and brighten and then apply a maintenance coat. No need to sand.

        Will I need to do that annually? Or is this just because it was the first time I stained it?

    How best can I blend this red section with the grayed deck. It came from a minwax mahogany stain drip. I applied goof-off and light sanding.

    Do you still carry Bio-Wash Stripex Wood Stain Remover or know where I can find it?
