Q: Can I stain or paint my deck myself?

• <div><p>DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.</p></div>

Q: What kind of paint should you use on a concrete porch?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/exterior-concrete-paint.htm">best type of paint for concrete</a> exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.</p></div>

Q: How long does stain take to dry?

• <div><p>While most stains will be dry to the touch within 12 hours, it can take up to 48 hours to fully cure. That means that while your stain might not be sticky within 12 hours, it&rsquo;s still not recommended to get it wet or touch it until it&rsquo;s had a chance to set for at least 24 to 48 hours.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint over old paint on my porch?

• <div><p>Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what&rsquo;s on there. Most of the time, you&rsquo;ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that&rsquo;s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won&rsquo;t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you&rsquo;re switching colors.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to seal wood stain?

• <div><p>Applying a topcoat sealer is not required, but it will keep the stain from fading over time. This is particularly important if the stain imparts a color or varnish. If you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-stain-wood.htm">staining exterior wood</a>, you should apply a sealant or finish to prevent weather-related issues down the line. Also, stained wood that lacks a seal won&rsquo;t look as clean and fresh. A clear topcoat will give it the professional result you want. </p></div>

Great chairs at a great price. Maker saves money by only milling one side of the chair, which was fine with me. Note however that he does not use glue (another expense), which I consider essential. That said, it's not hard to disassemble the chairs at home and glue them yourself. (Use Tightbond...
