Hi All,

I sanded my entire deck and rinsed my deck in October, let it dry, applied 1 thick coat of Sherwin Williams Pine Cone and only 8 months later I'm getting peeling all over.  What am I doing wrong i wonder?  Applying in normal temps, only 1 coat.  Located in South Ohio, West facing deck, direct sun for < 4hrs

I'm guessing I'm not prepping it right?

Thanks for any help.

Jeff

If your existing solid-color stain is in relatively good condition—meaning no major peeling or flaking—you do not have to fully remove it before applying a new coat. However, proper surface prep is critical to ensure adhesion and long-term durability.
