How to stain a deck?
Question:
Answers:
the best time to stain a deck is directly upon completion of construction. the wood is fresh and clean with no defects. to stain your materials before construction is not unheard of.
otherwise the surface ,then, needs superfluous sanding to clean the surface again. then the stain may be applied with a brush.
people do use spray applications but it only sits on the surface and is easily worn. the brush technique works the product right into the grooves, as it were.

start with the rail then spindles and knewell posts then do the floorboards working your way toward the stairs, then stain your way down the stairs,then do the footing posts,use cabot or sikkens stains ,they will give you a good solid four years until you have to re stain..painting contractor.
