The deck was a few years overdue: existing finish,
in many places was completely worn away by the elements and
by use.
Old Stain was worn completely out and was not protecting the lumber
from the elements or wear and tear of normal activities.
After the first coat of stain had ample time to be absorbed by
the Oak Deck Materials, it became apparent that a second coat of stain was
going to be needed to fully protect the lumber adding years of future use.
