                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Stained and sealed our new cedar deck with TWP 1530 Natural last night (2 coats both applied by brush).  About 4 hours later, it rained:(  We blew off the excess water that puddled on the deck first thing the morning and wiped off every board with a soft cloth to remove the "water circles" formed on top of the excess stain/sealant.  The cedar looks great now but seems very slippery.  Will this go away once it completely dries?  Any other suggestions?  <br />

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hey guys,<br />
	<br />
	 A little over a week ago I stripped/brightened and then stained my cedar deck. It was about 4-5 months with just a clear coat that was not doing the job and I wanted the UV protection. So I used Defy hardwood stain, their recommendation for cedar(naturalpine) 2 coats and everything was good. Recently though, I have noticed that where water has pooled after a rain that it is leaving water spots on the deck/rail that don't wipe off. Any ideas on what to do or what went wrong?]]></content:encoded>
