Tips for using Behr to restore the deck?
Hubby and I plan on using the Behr all-in-one prep for deck cleaning and then use the Behr premium weatherproofing stain. Any tips for effective application? I suck at this sort of thing!

Re: Tips for using Behr to restore the deck?
Honestly, it's about quality stain/waterproofing.
I would clean, and sand if there are spots taht need it. Putting the stain/waterproofing stuff on is the easy part. That's why I make sure to my effort into researching the product. I would start with finding out if what you are using is good or not.
I can tell you this, years ago I used their semi-transparent stain/waterproofer. It sucked. It didn't soak into the wood. It was more like a paint, and I had to redo it every year, and where the sun hit the porch the most, the stain would peel. They may have a better one now, but I hated the product.
