Samples

Do you have a local dealer in Atlanta?

Russ Davidson:

My question is in the title. How many square feet of new - unfinished ipe will each gallon cover. I have 160 sq. ft. of all wood ipe deck tiles that need finishing.

One gallon will cover 300-400 Sq. feet for Ipe.

Prudence:

Could you suggest any paint/stain chip color from other paint companies that come closest to your Oxford and Woodland brown shades? I'm leaning to ordering your semi-solid product because of the positive reviews, but color counts (historic house) so I'd like to be sure before I order.

You can order samples to test here. We do not have a list of comparable colors from different companies.

John Thurow:

Is the Mahogany a Semi Transparent or Semi Solid, or both?

It is closest to a semi-transparent.

Codie:

I'm looking for a semi transparent so we can see woodgrain still...but rustic brown looks not nearly light enough. I want a rich dark brown. Would maybe two coats of rustic brown work or is it possible to mix in some Oxford brown with rustic? Or would it not blend well being two different transparencys

All the colors will show the wood grain. You can mix colors to achieve a different color.

What combination of your colors would be closest to a teak color?

Thanks[/quote]

And does the mahogany have a purplish cast to it?

Color depends on your wood type. It is more reddish in color, not purple.

I just received the sample of Oxford Brown & am pleased with the color. I know the Rustic Brown is semi-transparent and not semi-solid, but how would you compare the shade/tone of the brown? It appears slightly grayish on my monitor. Need a rich brown & trying to stay away from shades that have reddish or orange hues. Any insight/descriptions would be most helpful! Thank you in advance for your reply!

Color varies based on your wood type and age of wood. All wood turns out differently so you should not use your monitor to determine but apply it to your wood to see how it looks.

I am sanding to remove Rustoleum restore its going slow but I will never get it all off epically between the boards, do you have a product that will cover the mess I am left with? I can't replace the deck

Sorry but no our stains will not cover the Rustoleum.

Would any of these stain colors cover the ink stamped on pressure treated wood? Advise on another website says to sand off the ink stamps, but I'm not sure if the stain will apply evenly if I do this.

Ordered 4 samples

Easton1:

I ordered 5 samples and intend to order two 5 gallon pails.

1. what is the shelf life of the product?
2. will I receive a $15 credit for each pail, total of $30 if I order two 5 gallon pails?

$15 max credit is allowed. Shelf life if unopened is a few years. Opened and it depends on how well it is protected from evaporation. Could be a year or less.

Martin White:

Just finished a new smooth cut Redwood deck and would like to keep the natural look of the wood. Something like when the wood is wet. What would you suggest for this look. Also we live in San Diego where the winters are pretty mild?

Thank you!

Nether is bronze. Oxford is a dark brown and Sequoia is red with a little bit of brown.
