So much better than the Thomson's water seal crap that just flakes off especially if you don't prep the wood. I'll never forget back when I was about 6 about 37 years ago, my father put a new deck on the house and put a "deck stain" on the whole thing and all of it just peeled off after a year. I love how you show the prep process because it's so important and overlooked.
Looking forward to the 3 season room. Thanks Jeff and crew.
G'day mate Myself and husband having been binge watching your videos for a few months now ,we have been buying what you have recommended and absorbing all your tips and tricks makes things so much quicker, safer and productive , we love the torpedo level also 👍we ask wwjd What Would Jeff Do 🤔😆 with a lot of things while doing our shed barn house build in Australia learning loads appreciate your time and videos so much well done farm house looks great from Teneal and Nathan and family😁👌👍
Learned my lesson early and had to sand a deck / now I only use oil based stain and seal- maintaince reduced from sanding to just pressure washing, cleaning and resealing, deck looks great by the way
I ❤ your videos. Honest. Being a typical man whose not so typical bcuz you fix things.😊
I like the idea of using the paint roller to apply the cleaner. Less mist and a bit faster than a Hudson sprayer with more concentrated application.
Living in Sweden I could get this over form the Germans for cheap. Great recommendation.
I just flipped my deck boards over as the previous owner had done nothing to protect the other side. Need to somehow straighten edges so water flows down and then I will apply this.
Thanks Jeff.
Can you do one about cleaning and sealing a new concrete patio? Do they make coating systems for outdoor slabs like they do for garage floors?
Can you use a roller to apply the oil in a big fence or anything better than brushing the whole fence?
I love your vids Jeff. I saw the Osmo from other retailers for 154 CAN for 2.5L I was hoping to see it under 75. While it seems great Im too cheap to pay that much for my huge deck privacy wall. I would need maybe 3 cans, would cost half price the wood needed for the wall. I kept your earlier recommendations years agk on oil vs stains.
Any idea if this product is ok to use on pressure treated decking?
Hey, Jeff. What are your thoughts on paint sprayer? Is it possible for you to compare different brands? Thanks for your videos. Helped me out a lot.
Hi Jeff, thank you for the deck video. Where is the video that shows you making the sunroom?
Thank you Jeff!
Another job needing to be done at my house that you have covered so thoroughly in this video. I can’t thank you enough Jeff.👍👌
Glad to help
Hi Jeff- hope you are well. #cheers
Hi Jeff!
I looked a your osmo stain... they are all sold out. Do you know if they are going to have more soon?
Thanks
I had a pressure treated deck installed and stained it but couldn't seal it because the temperature dropped. Come spring what should I do?
This might be a dumb question, but after cleaning/brushing the wood, do you need to let it dry before applying the stain/sealer?
I used a Benjamin Moore oil based stain when I built my cedar deck... it peeled the next year. I then ordered the water based Defy Extreme.... I sanded and applied, and it didn’t peel two years after. I just washed and applied a new coat last spring because it was getting a bit pale.
always let wood dry out before sealing. cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I was told treated lumber needs to dry, but Western Red Cedar is already ready to stain... 🤷♂️. Anyway, out with Benjamin Moore oil based, in with Defy Extreme water based. I based my new choice on DeckStainHelp.com, and they too say the Benjamin Moore will peal, and the Defy Extreme won’t... and that’s exactly what happened.
Thanks
while using this product, I always recommand to people to just use the hose for cleaning, since pressure washer breaks the wood grain if used to close. worst case scenario is that your wood will need sanding after using the pressure washer, if the only equipment you have is a pressure washer, use it 1 meter + away from the wood to reduce the impact of the water going inside the wood and opening all the grains of it, good luck!
What if I need to remove mold and mildew
@@ravneiv I neglected my deck for several years and it was pretty ugly and totally covered in mold growth. I used a pressure washer back in September and it removed every bit of mold with no visible damage to the wood. For full disclosure, about 10 years ago I did use a gas powered pressure washer 2700 PSI with a 10 degree tip and I did damage the wood grain. as DivisnGaming said. However, when I pressure washed it recently, I used a lower powered 1700 PSI electric pressure washer and I did use the 10 degree tip, but the deck was undamaged. Just budget about a day's worth of work because it will be time consuming but the end result will make your deck look 100 times better.
@@robertgiresi9515 Thanks
@@ravneiv this product removes mold and mild! Don't be afraid to use a deck cleaner
@@ledivinrs what's the product?
Hello! I have a question for you. I stained my deck and after a few weeks the deck started having a milky, dusty and faded look on it. What can I add to ensure the vibrant stain color stays longer?
Can that be used after a stain?
Thanks Jeff. 2 questions about the Osmo oil based stain. How many coats are needed and how often do we need to reapply the stain. Thanks.
2 coats should get you 3 years on horizontal surfaces.
Big deck energy 😂
You just had to say it? lol
EPIC
I use my watering jug for the garden to apply the cleaner.
Brilliant video as always Jeff, definitely gives me some pointers for treating my deck next year. 👍🍻
Glad to help!
In a different deck video, you recommended a water based olympic sealer for easy oressure wash and reapplication every year. So whats optimal? Especially for redwood?
If your deck is already stained and finished and you're ready to do your annual cleaning, do you still need the cleaning product or can you just power wash?
Will the cleaning solution force you to restain every time?
the cleaner was used because the wood had no protection.
Hi Jeff - Do you still (July 2024) recommend Osmo to seal a cedar deck? If so, 1 or 2 coats? Thanks!
Hey Jeff; went to purchase some of this oil for a couple projects I have going on & wanted to give you a heads up that the discount code doesn't work... It said the code wasn't valid for the items in my cart (one 2.5L of this oil) Do you know if there is there a minimum?
Do you have link for Canadian?
What is the name of the cleaning product used?
Just bought a house and it came with a new deck, it's pressure treated lumber (brown in colour if that matters) and Im wondering if an oil like the one you used would be a good product. I'm assuming I don't need to use the oil this year as it's "new" but would you advise using the product next year?
I have the same question. Thanks
Jeff, can I apply a coat of this on top of the existing Olympic Maximun Clear Sealer? Also, Osmo is supposed to last 5 years instead of 3 years, is that correct?
I wish I knew the answer. I watched another video where he is telling us to buy Olympic Maximum Clear Sealer and that is what I bought! Now I see this one!
It's SOLD OUT "everywhere" right now in the US. Any new suggestions? In 2019 you were using Olympic Maximum, but in this video, I get the vibe that didn't cut the mustard over time?
Hey jeff! Don’t have a deck but is still a useful video
Hey Jeff. Would you still recommend Olympic Maximum as a sealant like you used in a previous deck video? Thanks
I wondering the same. Jeff - What do you prefer now? Osmo or Olympic Maximum?
Did you find an answer and or a product that you prefer?
Could you use a sprayer with this oil based product?
sure
Can you make a video on what to look for when buying a house? Please please please or comment here
Don't forget to breathe in, breathe out Daniele san. 😂
What about Pt decks?
Just did a search for Osmo 420 clear stain with UV protection and found that the supplier/distributors (Ardec) website states that the product is NOT recommended for horizontal surfaces; any comment?
When is the best time of the year to do it ? (Season)
once the wood is dry and not too hot or cold
😊👍
Osmo 420 seems to be tough to track down -> pricey or out of stock. Any recommendations for an alternative clear Uv protection oil that has similar benefits/results?
Curious to know if you found any alternatives?
Did you find an answer and or a product that you prefer?
7:30 was one of the saddest moment in my entire day !
If it’s a brand new deck do you really need to clean it before?
just water and a little scrub brush for dirt is fine
If I have already used another brand of oil-based stain on the deck, can I power wash and use this Osmo's stain on top of it?
if it is a clear oil then yes!
Can I stain my cedar deck the same year I install or will I have to wait a year
you don't have to wait even 1 week. Cheers! we have a new cedar series coming up.
Which ozmo product did you use Jeff?
Pause the video to 5:18 and you can see he's using 2.5 liter Osmo UV Protection oil 420 clear. One coat covers 172sq/ft and costs $107 USD. So that's about $0.62 sq/ft. decorner.com/collections/stain/products/osmo-uv-protection-oil-extra-420-clear
I have Ipye decking. Once or twice a year I wait for a passing rain to wet the deck. I then sprinkle on Oxy Clean (non chlorine), let it foam, give it a scrub then rinse like crazy. All the green and crud is gone.
you should seal it as well.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I actually did it not long after installation but Iron Wood is so dense and naturally oily that the Penofin just washed off. Now, the surface is a light gray vice the original walnut, but there is still no checking or cracking. I may still opt to thoroughly wash it of any surface biological or debris and try oiling. My worry is that I may then unnecessarily be obligating me to routine "touching up" when things seem just fine now. Ipye/Iron Wood is a bit different from most other materials. It is so hard that I had to pre-drill for screws!
@@mddale I've only seen ipe decks like 3 times, but I've heard you need a special ipe oil only meant for sealing ipe because other oils won't work.
@@maxlee6676 Thanks!
Just to an interlock or concrete patio instead.
Can we get our mother in law to do this for us,please advice.
Anyone notice the haphazard lengths of deck boards that weren't trimmed as the deck was being treated???
What's up with that?
Hi Stan, Jeff said in the beginning of the video that it is a 'cedar project' so I thought he meant it's still a work in progress. Maybe he's planning to add something else to that end of the deck, like maybe a hot tub that hasn't come in yet from an order, and he wanted to get the staining done before bad weather hits. I'm sure he's not going to just leave it like that! 🤣
any deck oil should work fine. or mix your own with a little mineral spirits to help it soak in.
Off topic here. Can you do a vinyl floor on top of tile floor?
comes 2 weeks after I stained my deck.
Watch sealers they turn decks into a sheet of ice when the temps drop.
Must be a strong wind there...your hat is a lil sideways homes.
You missed so much of the underneath portions
$ 200 a gallon is a very special price.
One tip: If your deck has a solid stain like mine, then this method of cleaning and staining will not work.
One question: Do you like this product over the olympic maximum used on your other video? If it wasn't for the timestamp, I wouldnt be able to tell which one is the latest you are recommending.
Did you find an answer and or a product that you prefer?
@@raphaelness1239 For sealing, I used the australian oil from Lowes. I think the brand is cabot. It's okay so far, but it's only been a year. I don't think I can give it a proper review until I've reapplied atleast once and had it 5+ years. But no noticeable cons so far.
He looks yummy in a hat! :)
I too like the 'style' of his videos, but his recommendation/endorsements seem...fickle, which is either a good sign, because it means that he is actively staying abreast of new products, each as they are come to market and is not bound financially to the previous product, or...its bad, because it means that his endorsement are newly available for purchase each season to newer, hopefully 'as good' (to keeps things ethical) products, when the term of his previous short-term endorsement has lapsed. Just in terms of deck stains, there are no fewer than 3 different sealer/stain product recommendations posted all within less that 2 years of each other: Ozmo, C2 Guard, and Olympic (there may in fact be more too if you persevere or count partial recommendations like Thompson's Water Seal Clear). It may be the case that they are all similarly satisfactory and he should say so, otherwise is just an advertisement (possibly bought and paid for; if only with product to make the video), but then that's no recommendation at all.
This guy is always out of breath. Is he sick?
