Update on Best Application tips for applying the TWP 1500 Series
TWP 1500 Stain
Step 1: Measure Your Wood Surface
Start by calculating the square footage of your wood surface. The TWP 1500 Series Wood and Deck Preservative provides coverage of about 150-300 sq. ft. per gallon, depending on wood porosity. To avoid running out mid-project, purchase a little more stain than your estimate.
Step 2: Clean and Prepare the Wood
Before applying TWP 1500, thoroughly clean the wood using a pressure washer or brush paired with a high-quality wood cleaner. Proper preparation is key to maximizing the performance and longevity of the stain.
Step 3: Ensure Proper Drying Time
Allow the wood to dry for at least 48 hours after cleaning. Check the forecast and ensure temperatures are above 50°F, with no rain expected for a few days, to create optimal conditions for staining.
