FAQs

Can you stain pressure-treated wood?

You can, but timing is key. Pressure-treated wood needs time to dry before applying stain, otherwise the wood won’t absorb it properly. Yardistry products use kiln-dried cedar, which is ready to stain right away with our exclusive formula.

What happens if you stain treated wood too soon?

If stain is applied before the wood has dried, it may peel, flake, or fail to penetrate. Always ensure wood is dry and ready before staining for the best results.

Can you sand stained wood?

Yes, you can lightly sand stained wood if you want to refresh the finish or remove imperfections. Be sure to reapply Yardistry stain afterward to maintain protection and color consistency.

What is the best exterior wood stain for outdoor structures?

The best stain is one that’s designed for your specific wood type. The best option for Yardistry pergolas, pavilions, and gazebos is Yardistry’s 100% acrylic wood stain, engineered exclusively for our cedar products.

How long does wood stain last on outdoor structures?

Typically, wood stain lasts 2–3 years, depending on exposure to sun, rain, and other elements. Yardistry’s acrylic formula provides excellent durability, helping your structure maintain its color and protection longer.

Do I need to reapply stain every year?

Most structures don’t need to be restained annually. Depending on weather conditions and personal preference for color richness, a touch-up may be needed every few years.

What’s the best way to prep Yardistry products before staining?

Start by making sure the wood surface is clean and dry. Lightly sanding any rough areas can help the stain absorb evenly.
