How do you calculate the amount (in gallons) that you need?

[@StainSealExperts]

Hello! Our fence stain covers about 125 sq feet per gallon. On a regular 6ft privacy fence, you would take the linear feet and multiply by 12 (6 feet of fence on both sides), then divide by 125. This will give you the number of gallons you would need.

On a graco sprayer with a turn knob for pressure, where abouts would you have it set?

[@StainSealExperts]

The lowest pressure possible

Where can you get a spray lance set up, like he was using in this video? Is there a name for it?

[@StainSealExperts]

They are discontinued.

What tips do you specifically recommend? I couldn't hear it clearly

[@StainSealExperts]

Our crews prefer a 521 or a 1223 tip for privacy fences.

What's your method of cleaning up your airless sprayer and or brushes after staining with an oil based stain?

[@StainSealExperts]

Mineral spirits works well

I'm in SW Texas. What moisture content do I need to below before using your stain?

[@StainSealExperts]

About 13%

When staining a fence, do you have to use a wand extension?

[@StainSealExperts]

You don't have to, but it will save your back a bit,

[@truthseeker1532]

Why do oil products like Woodguard specifically say not to use an airless sprayer? They only recommend 12v and pump sprayers. I don’t see the issue using airless

[@StainSealExperts]

Our crews use airless sprayers daily with great success. Happy Staining!
