How to Stain Pressure Treated Lumber
The pressure treating process of wood involves using a water-based solution to carry the treatment chemicals into the fibers of the wood while under pressure. Most decks and fences are made with pressure treated wood. Homeowners like their deck or fence to match their house or complement surrounding landscaping, using stain. Stain also helps to preserve the wood and seals it from water damage. Pressure treated wood can be stained to the color of your choice.
