                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Is it beneficial or harmful to apply stain to all sides of wood decking and framing material possibly before boards are installed.  This deck will be full sun in a high humid tropical like climate.  The deck itself is appx 4 ft above grade.  Decking and frame will be constructed SYP ground contact treated lumber.  Was planning to use Cabot Australian Timber Oil but after reading multiple posts I am leaning towards the TWP100 or Resore-A-Deck semi transparent for the decking and a solid color stain for posts, framing &amp; hand rails. Please advise your thoughts.]]></content:encoded>
