Deck Staining 101: Your DIY Solution
The first step in staining your deck is to determine which look you want for your deck. Identify the type of wood that you have. If you have a hardwood, such as mahogany, a translucent stain allows the natural beauty of the wood to be accented by the stain. A pressure treated deck in good condition is enhanced with a semi-transparent allowing the grains to show. If your deck does not look the best due to aging, a semi-solid or solid would hide more imperfections and add more color. As a rule of thumb the more opaque the finish, the longer it will last but there is more of a chance for peeling. Especially if the necessary preparation is not done properly. Remember when choosing your desired opaqueness for your deck, it’s important to remember you can always change to a more opaque product, but you cannot choose a less opaque product unless you strip the deck first.
