This is for Decks that have previously been coated using TWP.Wood Maintenance, is different from a complete Wood Restoration. Restoring a wood surface means
bringing it back to a "like new" appearance from a neglected state, or it could be deciding to switch from one stain type to another stain type. Wood maintenance on the other hand is an ongoing process to keep well kept wood, looking good. Wood maintenance is simply cleaning and re-coating the wood with the same wood stain that was previously used.
In preparing an exterior wood surface for maintenance, it is important to know what type of old stain is present. TWP Wood Preservative can be cleaned and re-coated easily but switching from one stain to another requires a different process. For our purposes here, we are assuming you are maintaining a wood surface that has a fading TWP Wood Stain already on it and you are ready to begin the maintenance.
