Have a couple of finished shots for the deck restoration we did in Chesterfield, VA. The customer chose a clear, oil based stain. These pics show deck while still "wet". Still haven't had the chance to go back after the stain has cured and lightened.
This deck was stripped, nails counter-sinked, sanded, brightened and stained with an oil-based, penetrating clear stain.
That's too bad you couldn't use some pigment instead of just a sealer. I would hate to see that redwood turn grey in 6 months-1 yr ...It's some beautiful wood for sure!
How many hours you have in that deck from start to finish?
beautiful I never worked with redwood before. think it will be my choice for a live edge dining room table next fall.. love the grain. To many ppl destroy great wood these days
