转一个专门做Deck Finish的contractor写的东东，然后你再做决定。
Re: How does your deck stain handle the weather
The answer to the original question
"How does your deck handle the weather." is...BADLY!.
In fact the correct question is actually "How does the weather handle your deck"
Here's the thing...no matter what you do or or who's product you use you will (or should) be re-doing your deck every two years...that is if you want it to look "nice".......so everybody stop moaning and get over it.
This is a fact, based on many many years of observation.....not just an opinion.
There is no magic, there is no silver bullet, no 5 or 10 year coating.
Read my lips .....NOTHING.... works for long.
Sorry to disappoint you.
This is Canada, you are coating wood which breathes and expands and contracts and absorbs moisture and releases moisture and the UV beats down on it to the max and then snow sits on for months .......what did you think was going to happen?
Stop believing the stupid advertising and get real.
Every year this discussion happens....and there is an entire industry built around getting people to re-do their decks. (note choice of words "RE-DO" ..that means DO AGAIN.....and again and again and again.)
Put nothing on your deck.
Aged wood is pretty.
Be happy.
Or prepare to spend money and do work repetitively until you or your deck die.
Here's the rules:
1) Read the instructions
2) Read the instructions again.
3) Follow the instructions to the letter, exactly, no shortcuts (and no, "more", is not necessarily better, in fasct it may actually be worse)
4) Prepare to do the same thing in two years...for ever.
Know that generally, penetrators are better than film forming finishes on wood (for obvious reasons....they will not lift, they just fade, discolour, rot and look horrible ..but they don't lift).
When you read the instructions, if it says 1 coat, they mean it.
If it says prep it with a tooth brush and your tongue....they mean it.
If they say "backbrush" you better find out what that means...its important and it does not mean SWMBO should give you a rub.
If it says 5 years or 10 years..they are joking and if you believe it for a second you need to buy some land in Florida....and then re-read this letter.
I've got 25+ years in the coating business and several long term friends who do nothing but deck refinishing...they die laughing when people say they want 3, 4, 5 or more years on a deck.....it ain't gonna happen.
Hasn't yet and likely never will.
There is way too much of "doing the same thing twice and expecting different results"..with decks in particular.
Are people so gullible....must be I guess.
Merely wishing or strongly desiring or hoping madly or paying lots of money won't do it......you are up against the physical laws of the universe and you will lose ..... sorry about that.
Good bye.
Now I'm going out to sit on my unfinished nice grey deck and think nice thoughts.
