Recently Donigan Painting worked with a Syracuse area landlord and realtor to restore her properties front porches and deck. The previous painter had used paint on a pressure treated pine decking causing it to flake and peel prematurely making a mess. Pressure treated decks need to be able to breath, which stain allows. Unlike paint which is a film or solid layer stain is absorbed into the wood so that it will last much longer under wear and tear traffic patterns. First thing we did to get this situation corrected was to pressure wash off all paint that was loose. Next we allowed the deck to dry out for a few days so that it would absorb the stain. A good rule of thumb is to take a water bottle and drip a teaspoon amount to see if it will be absorbed, if it beads up wait a bit longer. We then applied two coats of Sherwin-Williams Super Deck Solid Stain in a dark grey. Here is how it turned out!
