Doc stains the new wood fence with stain using an airless sprayer. Staining a fence is hard work, but not that hard to do if you understand a little of the science behind the wood and the stain. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
It is early May 2023… You did a great job providing everyone the information critical to staining their fence 👏
Going over the myth on wait time was a great addition….
Covering moisture content was great 👍
Covering water based, oil based, hybrid…. Very nice
Again… I am pleased to see someone taking the time to explain the process to todays standards
Me and my wife just got done re-staining our fence, and used a roller and brush, and let me tell you I'll never make that mistake again... It looks good, but with both of us working on it we spent 20 hours. All in, it only cost us about $200 in supplies but man was it a ton of work.
I'm glad I found your channel. How to on EVERYTHING. I'm so jealous of that yard too. Gosh it looks like a resort in your backyard. Amazing.
Doc It has been almost one year since you posted this. So glad you did. Can you do a review on how it weathered in 12 months. I just did my fence (Cedar, installed last November) It was not hard but it takes it out of you. I can relate to how you felt. Hoping I dont have to do this again for a while.
Your fence is GORGEOUS!!!! Love the honey gold color!!🍯
Nice lawn Doc! Looks very manicured and taken care of like a golf course. Oh and nice fence LOL Looks much better than store bought junk.
Just got and used this exact same Graco unit to stain my fence and deck. Saved me so much time, love it. I wish I would have used a wheel barrel like you, great idea for next time!
Awesome job on the fence. Looks fantastic.
Great information Doc! Love the color (freakin awesome). My neighbor did the same color. Hired a three person crew (pressure washing, staining) took them three days.
Thank you for your step by step videos!!
Beautiful fence. Makes everything pop.
Excellent video, good job Sir! And by the way your lawn looks beautiful.
Thanks for the video. Very impressive and helpful.
Used the very same stain on my deck the 3 year. love it.
What a beautiful fence!
Really nice looking fence !
That’s one very impressive fence 👍
Nice video. I'm about to stain our fence. Very helpful.
Thanks Doc Vader!!
Wow, wish I had known of your channel last year! I am now a subscribet!
Perfect timing doc
Looks absolutely gorgeous. I have an older fence that I prepped for stain. The fence still looks old. If I had only knew to do this when they installed it. I'm choosing to go with a darker color to cover the dark areas. Did you have any issues covering the fence where the roses are next to the shed?
Beutiful yard and long beatiful fence!
Het Doc this is a great "How To" fence staining video. And who said first (you or your son), "I am finished (pause) both sides (pause), not yet"...lol. Yeah I got 430' of Westeran Red Ceder fence to stain. I have been looking at Ready Seal stain. I will give your recommended Olympic stain a close consideration now...thx, tww
Buy a gallon and try on the back side.
Nice fence Doc
Man great video!! Thank you
When staining the fence and it gets on the concrete do you just pressure wash it off or is there a way to keep it off while applying? Thanks and love the videos.
Hi question
After a few years do you re apply the same or is there a different step
Thanks for your video
I wouldn’t change stain colors on the back since on the spindle top the color will be seen from inside.
Our fence is about 9 mos old. Cedar. Untreated. When I pressure wash it, do I need to use some type of cleaner, or just water? Can someone in Colorado recommend the best treatment for our dry climate?
Hey doc by doing board on board did you have to get alot of more Pickett's right now i have a 170 feet im doing i have 400 dog ear boards now but I like yours so now I wont to do board on board how many extra boards you needed for yours.
Nice property
I like that stain looks nice gives it that wet look
Hey Doc, awesome fence! Where did you get your caps for your fence posts?
Hi Doc, I watch all your videos even though I live in southern Canada and don’t have your conditions. I have a section of fence that I originally stained in opaque black and I’d like to change to brown. It’s about 8 urs old and the stain is failing in spots. What do you recommend, stripping with power washer or staining over and will a brown opaque stain cover? Thanks for any thoughts.
I would try a SECTION that is not visible first. Pressure wash and stain.
I love that design. The ugly side ain’t ugly though. 😆 As a widow, thank you for creating something pleasant for Barb to view too.
How much is the sprayer & What Stain are you using again? I have a 6ft 3yr old wood fence I pressure washed and need to stain. Love the Light color you used. Great job! It took me almost 6hrs to do my Driveway! Crazy long but the outcome is incredible worth the work!!
What brand respirator did you wear?
transparent
semi transparent
SOLD COLORS!
Great vid Doc! just pokin some fun ;) Keep em coming!
Doc, what was your experience in spray coverage per gallon?
I know the manufacturer states approximately 350 Sq ft/gal, but just wanted to know what your experience was with spraying it. Thanks!
Really enjoyed your video!
I just want to be good friends with Doc! Wonder if he’s a Steeler fan! Lol 😂 Pittsburgh fan!
Do you do both sides of the fence?
Do you have a video for the building your fence?
Hey Mr Doc! I’m new to the fence staining game, could you tell me if this stain will keep your fence from turning gray over time? Huge fan of your channel, currently using super juice with chelated iron and it’s working great... appreciate the work you do and the knowledge you share 👍🏼
Yes... if your fence turns gray before staining... pressure wash then stain. The color will stay the same for about 2-3 years.
Doc, I am not sure if I missed it but does that tip come with the sprayer? I'm in the market for a new sprayer as well and will be staining our fence in the next week once the rain breaks. Great video. Thank you.
I think it comes with a 511 tip... get the 411 ... also they have a tip tool on their website.
How do you deal with the gate hardware?
My fence was put up last year, is it to late?
DOC, CAN YOU SHOOT A VID WITH YOU COOKING ON THE GRILL FOR HARD WORKING CREW ?
Spraying is the way to go.
Doc, I can't tell, but did you stain the tops of the wood board, too, which is where the sun will beat down on and the water will sit and enter the wood and start to do it's damage.
What type of wood is the fence made off
Can u briefly explain the priming with water in the sprayer. Is this done to dilute the stain to make it sprayable. Does it auto mix water and stain to make it sprayable. I have a little bit of lattice to stain a solid color and have been trying to use a spray bottle. The stain is to thick it clogs. When i have diluted it with water it works but has obviously taken multiple coats can see a difference but is turning out. Thanks
AIRLESS sprayers.... like the one shown need to be primed. Not the same with "spray bottles"
Did you ever put out a video about building the fence?
Do you use 2 coats ?
How many gallons did you go through doc? Lawn does look even better against the new fence and the fence is awesome.
About 10 gallons for the current work
I just built a fence, this is good timing
What machine is that
Doesn`t everything near the area get covered in overspray?
it's really not that bad and it's not oil base so no big issues... but yes move your cars.
I need to stain my new pressure treated deck. What roller would you suggest. ( I don't have a sprayer)
Damn, beautiful fence and beautiful land...where do you live?
is your grass turf?
Great info as usual Doc. Question for you! Is it also untrue to have to wait to paint (not stain) pressure treated wood. Have some new pressure treated wood I would like to apply paint
With paint you have to allow for MOVEMENT as well... so yes allow to dry longer.
How much sqf does one gallon cover
So, do you only stain one side of the fence?
I am 16:09 into the video. I guess everyone was late to the project... lol .😂😂
I wish you had purchased at least the Magnum X5… the project painter plus is meant to be disposable and not last very long.. basically advertised for 1 project. How’s it holding up?
At 13:57 in the video, you talk about prime for oil verse water with an embedded “startup video”. I can’t find it, this video would be very helpful.
Hey Doc, Do you have a video on the fence assembly? The double board fence is real neighbor friendly but I see you have stringers that you begin with and those are on the back side (the neighbor side) is there another assembly option that you might have used in sections where it counts or were you lucky and looks are good all around for the neighbor. Just asking.
Do I water in super juice or leave it
I spray at night and water in the next morning.
Doc quick question i live in south florida and it has rained everyday for 2 weeks, i have a riding mower cause i cant use a push mower cause of my walking condition but the yard needs mowing ive tried to at least cut 2 times a week but im causeing scar marks should i just wait til it completely dries out but it rains in fl everyday this time a year lol
Is it Bermuda? Do the best you can and then once it dries scalp it down low.
@@HowTowithDoc Yes its Bermuda thank you for the info with this tropical depression in the gulf it might dry out by Halloween lol
use HVLP you wont have as much over spray when staining
Hey Doc fence stain looks awesome just a quick question are you staining both sides of the fence
Yes, back done next week
And other than an obvious visual difference is there any effect if you use a different stain per the neighbors preference since that side faces them ? In the sense that they decide to use a different type of stain vs what you use ....
Is that real grass or astroturf? lol 😆 🤣 😂
Curious why you didn't get the 5 gallon cans. Ease of handling, cost, or not in stock etc. ?
Only 1 gallons in stock.
What about decks
Why not use a 5 gallon pail of stain? Wouldn’t it be cheaper?
The trans Honey was only in stock in 1 gallons.
Tbat steel or poly wheel barrow?
Poly
@@HowTowithDoc is it true temper brand ?
all this info and you didn't mention the TIP SIZE!
15:26 Uncle Ben is Luke's father?
I am building a fence as we speak
when you are nailing/screwing your board and water is coming from the hole you should not stain! It’s like building a deck.. if it’s wet slam it tight, if it’s dry put nail in between.. if you don’t see water coming from the screw hole stain it! If you do see water wait!! This is coming from someone who has done decks and fences!! After you pressure wash give it 48 hours of no rain to stain
If you use the Olympic hybrid stain... you can stain the day after a rain or 24 hours after pressure washing.
Yes I know along as the inside of the wood is dry
You should wait at least 4-6 months for PT wood to dry before painting or staining.
Actually no..... you can stain when the wood is READY to be stained. That's actually a myth. Most fences are cracking and turning gray by 6 months.
@@HowTowithDoc Im going to agree to disagree.
A very good read......... warlinepainting.ca/debunking-myths-about-deck-staining/ also simply call Olympic and ask. Waiting 4-6 months is the "home depot" answer.
