HOW-TO > PROJECT TIPS > Thompson's® WaterSeal® Deck & House Semi-Transparent Latex Waterproofing Stain
- Apply using an exterior paint pad, brush, roller or compression driven sprayer set for low pressure. (When rolling or spraying be sure to go back and brush in stain to ensure even coverage.)
- Keep the leading edge wet and distribute stain evenly. This will help avoid lap marks and keep color uniform.
- Work from top to bottom or side to side in areas small enough to allow the leading edge to remain wet at all times during application. Use natural breaks (windows, doors) as boundaries to divide large areas into more manageable work areas.
- Only one coat of Thompson's® WaterSeal® Deck & House Semi-Transparent Latex Waterproofing Stain is recommended. A second coat can be added if desired. Allow the first coat to dry thoroughly (approximately 2 hours) before second application.
