For example, a brand-new deck or fence typically has a mill glaze still on it which will prevent the wood from being able to accept the stain. The mill glaze can come off on its own over time (typically at least 3 months) or we can use a Sherwin Williams product called Revive that helps remove that mill glaze. This product also brings back the natural wood color prior to staining. Once that process takes place, the deck or fence would be ready for staining immediately.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Another example would be a deck or fence that is currently stained with a solid brown stain. If you have patio furniture that shifts around or pets that run across the deck, you’ve probably noticed that some of the stain has started to peel off. If that is identified and the homeowner wants to re-stain with a new solid color, our professional painters would sand down the surface and remove any flaking\/peeling paint. This ensures the surface is ready to accept the new stain product and adhere properly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
