Welcome to our forum.
The longer you let it age the better it will take stain and look in the end. Besides who likes the look of green treated wood. When it turns gray then treat it. It will take more stain (maybe 2 coats) but once it is done it will last longer and look better. One or Two years. Then just use colored stain. There are many good brands out there that color and protect.This is how I take care of my decks...and you all know I have alot of them. 1800 SF house 2000 SF decking...LOL
ok, looks pretty obvious that the tub'll be in place prior to stain/protect.....should we even BOTHER to do the tub deck? There should only be a few inches around the base in any direction exposed (7'7" x 8'4" tub, 8' x 9' deck)......Otherwise, it sounds like when weather permits, we can wash and stain the main deck...I'm good with that.Thanks for even MORE info!
