@@cappystrano1, No doubt! A customer who does magic actually asked me this. Gave me the idea for the video. Believe me, I will stick to exterior wood.

@@byronfabo3786, thank you and I hope the videos have been helpful.

Lumping all oil in one category is the first mistake, just as mentioned in the video. If you really think there are water based sealers and stains that don’t penetrate further than linseed oil, well… Too much old school thinking in this industry.

@@glennbigourdin9384, thank you! One of the most popular ones and seems to have been very helpful to many.

@@organicvids, usually Sodium Metasilicate, Sodium Hydroxide, and/or Potassium Hydroxide.

@@billsullivan8812, there will be some natural fuzzing and wood fibers when restoring wood. Keeping a deck well maintained prevents this. No rhyme or reason on why some “new” wood does this and some new wood more than others. On aged wood if it has grayed or not been maintained they are decomposed wood fibers that actually need to come off before staining. Sometimes wood restoration is light sanding and Osborn brushing.

​@wizardofwood Thank You very much for quick response Everett.

@@cappystrano1, thank you for the kind words. Thanks for watching!

@@JaneenMost, this is a detailed video from 4 years ago that explains the differences. Thanks for watching the video and channel. ua-cam.com/video/le-y2GBEGEk/v-deo.htmlsi=FWb7BEx1Ncq0Aq89

@@russhauck1061, thanks for the question. It depends on what kind of pressure treated pine you got. Kiln dried, prime can be sealed or stained sooner than newer cut, green, wet wood. Good kiln dried, prime pressure treated pine is a little more money but well worth it. It is also less likely to shrink as much too. Check out this older video that is still relevant. ua-cam.com/video/DVUPc3eN484/v-deo.htmlsi=945lR63tkd0Jvzio

Thanks that help so much I have knots in my deck wood. They did not tell me when they built my deck. So I will at least three months to stain my deck. I love the videos.

We are adding new joists, venting the stairs for better air flow in this area. Then we will repair and seal the mahogany with Messmer’s Hardwood Formula!

@@ryantracey8574, actually not that old and it is mahogany. My opinion, it is a construction issue. That area was built next to a pool and moisture just sits under there with no vents and the inside is enclosed. We are repairing and adding vents onto those stair risers. That should help the air flow and keep that part dry moving forward.

No it doesn’t LIAR

@@user-rr4bw8ek4p besides the rotted part it looks nice, why would you call me a liar?

The wood really is nice. Just this area not so good. I will do another video once it is all repaired and stained.

@@darnisejennings9138, I got a large deck too. I don’t mind it too much since we spend A LOT of time on it so we get the use for sure. Depending on who is helping you, do the verticals on a separate day as the floor if possible.

@@bartosullivan8050, older video now but a lot of information still very relevant. Thanks for watching!

@@Ohtwiggy, thank you and there is still time!

I’m trying to find a company in Washington that does this.

@@renaetawney5217, I tell people to contact a specialty paint store near you for a reference. These people know who is busy and who gets recommended most. Be specific about what you are looking for, like exterior wood restoration and exterior staining. Not all painters do this work or well versed in the differences. They will be able to give you painters who are best this service or a company that specifically does this work well.

@@wizardofwood Thank you very much.

@@stilb1te, thank you for watching!

@@tonymeans7193, I am assuming it is a solid stain. At 7 years it need a new coating, especially on a horizontal surface. If you are going to make the effort to strip and sand you will prep the surface very well for the new stain. Depending on how much is left over after stripping you will probably sand twice. Once with a very low grit that will remove the remaining stain and then 100 grit to finish it off and be ready to apply the new stain.

@@wizardofwood ThanxWiz!

Not sure about your question. Many reasons to sand a deck as illustrated in the video. These types of sanders are called floor sanders, I did not name them. I believe you are just calling it, generally, a deck sander. In the U.S. I am not aware of anything called a deck sander. To me though, they would be synonamous.

@@brianemmons2485, at least you set the expectation!

@@maydanlex, actually there are product lines that are less than cedar and comparable to pressure treated pine. Darker colors do get hot.

@@patrickeaton752, usually depends on current condition and the last coating can make a difference. If you are in an HOA or community with multiple decks you may get a break for volume.

The real answer is to follow the recommendation by Proluxe on recoating and maintenance. The biggest issue here is that most people do not follow the program (manufacturer’s recommendations) and then this starts the issues. Sikkens/Proluxe is one of the most difficult coatings for homeowners and even contractors to remove if maintenance is not followed. A light cleaning to remove organic growth and recoating with the same product is usually how maintenance is done. If the coating is too far gone or oxidized significantly, then you would need to strip, sand as necessary, perhaps Osborn Brush, and then recoat. Great product when applied and maintained correctly. Holds up well!

You are not wrong on that point.

@@steveshires2549, thank you sir!

@@scottfudger1231, not always true and a fallacy in most cases. . Plus, I hope with your limited knowledge you are referring to pine. Stain as soon as possible, Forest Product Laboratory, Western Red Cedar Lumber Association and more I can cite. This is why people tune in here and not to listen to people who learn from FB groups.

@@xthaking, glad they help! I have stained in the Texas heat for some classes in the past.
