Rolling right along... 😂 I see what'cha did there. Lol
A great video! Very quick and precise! ❤
That’s a sharp looking deck! Classy.
Thank you so much!!
"Eh, oh I sealed the friggin deck."
I’ve used an airless sprayer for my deck. I know it says on the can not to use a high-pressure sprayer….but when the water beads on my deck after application I figure it’s ok 👌🏼
Thanks for the video, deck looks great. I ran into the same scenario where it rained about 8 hours later, but it was sunny and hot when I applied it. It appeared dry to the touch when I was done applying it. My question is: did it bead up after it rained? I woke up this morning and realized that it rained over night. However, there were no water beads from the rain. It looks as though the rain soaked through the wood. I applied it in the same fashion as you did. When I first applied this 3 years ago, there were water beads everywhere after a rain storm.
Yes it did bead after it rained.
I 🤔 you applied the waterproofing sealant while the wood was still too new, as it needs several months before application. Furthermore, you need 24-48 Hours before having it exposed to water ( or ☔. Let me know how it held up monthsvlater
It looked great and lasted the season.
Nice. How did it hold up ?
What type of roller did you use?
Hi Jeff. Tom from Kanata. We have a deck that is stained with a chocolate coloured stain that is required by condo rules got to look uniformed with the rest of the units. Can I use Tompson Water Seal over top of the stain. I have found that some of the flat hand rail boards are starting to rot from the standing rain and snow would this help prolong the life of these areas. I am a subscriber and love your channel. Thanks. Tom
This is just my opinion, but as long as it is the same base as the stain, then it should help a bit as long as it is able to penetrate, but oil and water don't mix so you would want to go with what the other stain is. Also, I would recommend testing a small patch in a inconspicuous spot to see how it affects the color first to make sure you get the results that you want.
Hitting mine this weekend, does anyone know if the finish leaves a stickiness feel after it's applied?
It does not. It feels as if it has a coating of watered down lacquer on top. It actually feels nice on your bare feet.
That's more of a platform than a deck but the video was super helpful. Thank you.
Ground level deck. No railings or permits required.
U should show how it looks after 2 years!!
… but you never followed up with a video on how well the seal worked!
How much sealer did you need? My deck is about 700 sq ft
I just got away with one can. I bought a second just to be safe and thought I might get stuck using just a bit but I made it with one.
@@TheRandyMan the website says 200 sq ft per gallon. Did you use up a 5 gal can for 400’. ?
@@a1ar127 The can says "Maximum Coverage Area (Sq. Feet)400". I had just over 400sqf so I used one can. Check the description on the Lowes website. In your case it sounds like 2 cans.
@@TheRandyMan does it prevent greying of the wood?
How has the Thomson water seal held up ?
It is great, but you need to do yearly.
@@TheRandyMan thanks for the quick reply! Would you recommend going with a different product that offers like a 3 year protection?
They really only hold for a short time even if it says 3 years. You will most likely 2 years at thr most.
You didn't use pressure treated wood for your deck?
That is pressure treated wood.
@@TheRandyMan Gotcha. The spacing between the deck boards made me think they weren't. Nice looking deck!
Actually, I bought the wood during Covid when there was a shortage, and I’ve never seen wood shrink as much as this wood has.
@@TheRandyMan Wow!! Yea, I finished my deck last Monday (July 3rd) and the boards are already starting to shrink up. And they were WET/heavy!
only one coat?
Yes sir!!
Woodglut has very good and accurate plans.
