I am getting ready to restain my pressure treated deck. Last year we used 1500 twp that we learned about through your website. Should we use twp again or is there a new better stain out there? Also how should we prep the deck since we used twp stain last year? Thanks for your help.

BKY, if it was us we would apply a maintenance coat of the TWP to just the horizontals. Clean lightly to remove and dirt and apply one light coat.

what would you clean it with and would you also use a brightener?

A good deck cleaner such as Restore A Deck or Defy. Light mix of about 4 oz per gallon of water. Lightly agitate with a soft broom then rinse. For this you really do not need a brightener.
