TWP 100 Stain Series Coverage and Preparation

The TWP 100 Stain Series Wood and Deck Protectant covers approximately 150-300 sq. ft. per gallon, per coat. To ensure you have enough stain for your project, calculate the total square footage of your wood surface, including railings and steps if working on a deck. This will help you determine how many gallons you need.

Preparation is Key

Before applying TWP 100 Series Deck Stain, make sure the wood surface is thoroughly cleaned using a high-quality wood cleaner. Once cleaned, use a broom or leaf blower to remove any debris that may have accumulated on the wood. Proper preparation ensures the stain adheres well and provides long-lasting protection.

Changing to TWP Wood and Deck Stain Tips

Many exterior wood and deck owners have dealt with the task of changing their wood surface’s appearance by simply switching to a different wood stain. Whether you want a different look or you are tired of inferior wood stains that don’t last, switching to TWP stain is a good investment.

TWP is an EPA registered exterior wood preservative. It has excellent UV blocking and color retention properties that make it a superb choice for all exterior wood surfaces.

Before switching to TWP Wood Stains, you first have to remove all remnants of the old failing stain. Use a wood stain stripper and not a wood cleaner. Wood cleaners are not aggressive enough to remove old stains. Applying a wood stain stripper will soften the most transparent, semi-transparent, and semi-solid water and oil-based wood stains.
