                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[We were supposed to have a week of sunshine so we started our staining using TWP 1500. We did one bench and had about 4 hours of drying time in the evening before it started to rain!! It rained all night. When I checked the next morning, there was no visible sign of damage. Water was beading up on the bench and no runny stain anywhere. Now I'm waiting for it to dry. <br />
	1. How long should I wait before resuming? <br />
	2. Do I need to strip out the stain and start over again?<br />
	3. Is there any re-prep I need to do on the unstained areas?]]></content:encoded>
