You can apply the brightener right away after cleaning. If there are puddles of water, try to broom those off before applying the brightener. There is no maximum amount of time you can wait, as long as you apply the brightener at some point before you stain.
Yes, you can usually wait up to about three weeks before the sun will start causing the wood to lost its natural color.
Yes. Fence stain application temperature is important. You can apply Timber Oil as long as the temperature is above freezing. The stain will take longer to dry in colder temperatures. On the other hand, you need to apply Hardwood Wiping Stain when temperatures are above 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yes. Using exterior wood stains or sealers is an excellent way in order to protect outdoor wood furniture.
You can use either a deep penetrating stain or a hardwood wiping stain on outdoor pressure-treated wood and pine furniture.
You can use either a deep penetrating wood stain or a hardwood wiping stain on outdoor wood furniture. The penetrating stain will finish more flat where the wiping stain will give the furniture a bit of luster. If your furniture is an exotic hardwood like Teak or Ipe, it is best to stick with the Hardwood Wiping Stain.
If the temperature is in the 70’s its usually safe to walk across the deck with clean shoes after about 2 hours. We don’t recommend scheduling any dance parties for at least a day or two. If the wood is in the full sun, that will help the stain dry a little quicker. When the wood is in the shade, or the temperature is cooler, it can take longer for the stain to dry.
To replace deck furniture before the wood is completely dry, you can use shoe coverings. These slip on covers will prevent you from tracking dirt into the finish.
Older wood that absorbs a lot more oil can also take longer to dry.
Absolutely! Woodrich Brand uses transparent oxide pigments. So mixing the colors together is extremely easy. We offer sample color kits so that you can test our stock colors. You can also experiment with blends to find the perfect color tone for your project.

I gladly paid for the “Sample Pack” of stains. You can not beat a hands on trial of the product on a scrap piece of what my deck is made of. Color sheets/online pictures are just not enough. The ability to actually SEE the product at my house is the best that one could ask for and receive.
Overall we liked the product, now it is just a matter of deciding which color.
We wish that there was color that was more in a brown range. We have deck boards that “Frame” the entire deck and we were thinking of using a contrasting color to accent the framing (2 boards wide, all around the deck.)

Great way to try out the different colors. I chose the Amaretto. I ordered 3 gals of the Amaretto Timber Oil for my new pressure treated pine deck. I used the $15 coupon, thanks.

The sample pack was great… A great value seeing big box doesn’t even have sample sizes. Thank you!

The sample kit arrived quickly and all the bottles were properly sealed. I was able to quickly decide which stain color I wanted to use and order it. (Amaretto)

My husband took on a project building cabinet doors for a friend. The color needed to match doors that are about 20 years old. The colors from Woodrich were perfect.

I’m still deciding what stain will work best on my treated deck to match my cedar rail I’m still building. I’ll be ordering more stain in the near future after construction is complete.

Shipping was quick and packaged securely. Colors are wonderful and the product is very easy to work with. I plan to order full sizes and use for staining a new deck.

I received the samples yesterday and I’m in the process of making a decision on color. I will likely be submitting an order in about two weeks.

Order $10.00 worth of samples. They arrived a few days later. I tried all them and wow the wood looks great.
Bernard Ebert –
Woodrich’s total solution package looks very appealing. Their sample paint offer is very good. They should also offer small, inexpensive samples of the other two items that make up their package. That would seal the deal and increase their competitiveness.
