Staining a Deck in a DAY! The Idaho Painter

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The first step involves a comprehensive overview of the necessary tools and materials. The presenter highlights tools for staining by hand, including a stain brush extension pole, various stain brushes, buckets for mixing, and mini rollers for spindles. It also introduces masking tools like a hand masker, masking paper, and different types of FrogTape (blue for production, orange for less bleed-through) to protect surrounding areas. The importance of prior prep work, such as sanding and pressure washing, is mentioned, and a leaf blower is shown for clearing dust after these initial steps. An airless sprayer is also displayed, though its primary use in this specific re-stain project is limited to hard-to-reach gaps.

Goal: Gather and understand the necessary tools and materials; acknowledge prior prep work.

Tools and materials

  • Airless Sprayer Titan Impact 440 — Efficiently applying stain into deck plank gaps and for large areas (if changing colors)
  • Buckets — Holding and mixing stain
  • Hand Masker — Quickly applying masking tape and paper to protect surfaces
  • Hand Stain Brushes Premier — Applying stain to smaller areas, edges, and spindles
  • Leaf Blower Milwaukee — Clearing dust and debris from the deck surface after sanding
  • Mini Rollers — Applying stain to spindles and railings
  • Stain Brush Extension Pole Haydn — Laying out stain on large deck surfaces, reducing strain on the back
  • Blue FrogTape FrogTape
  • Masking Paper — Protecting adjacent surfaces (siding, concrete) from stain
  • Orange FrogTape — A more economical option for general masking where bleed-through isn't as critical

So, we're getting ready to do the deck here. We got some tools set up. Uh I typically on in a deck like this, this is a a restain same color. We would on a colored change or a brand new deck, we're going to be using it, we would be using an airless sprayer, spraying the gaps in between cuz it's very difficult to get down in the gaps and we use an airless sprayer with like a 210 or a 208 tip to spray in between each plank. I got an airless sprayer out here. I'm going to show you what that looks like. We're not going to do it here cuz this is the exact same color so we don't have to worry about getting down in between the planks cuz we sprayed it last time and it looks really good. But I got a bunch of other tools we're going to be staining by hand. Going to be using a stain brush extension pole. This is what we're going to be using to lay out the deck. We've got some buckets right here. Buckets and mullers cuz we've got some spindles and stuff to do. be using hand stain brushes, large and small stain brushes. I got some masking tools.

I'm going to be doing some masking. We got a hand masker. We don't want to get any overspray if we're spraying, but even if we're just hand brushing and rolling, it's easy to get splatters or get stuff on the siding of the house or even the concrete. So, we're going to be using um a hand master to keep stuff off of concrete and off the siding. Uh we already did all the sanding and prep work. So um we're going to be moving those tools off. Um the tapes we're using, got two tapes we're
