Q: What is the most durable pool deck coating?

• <div><p>You have a couple of options when choosing a durable pool deck coating. Epoxy is common and offers excellent stain and water resistance. Epoxy also withstands high temperatures and UV lighting, making it ideal for sunny spots. You can also add a coating to cement, which significantly lowers the temperature of the concrete, is environmentally safe, and makes cleanup a breeze.</p></div>

Q: What not to do when staining a deck?

• <div><p>When staining a deck, don&rsquo;t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don&rsquo;t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don&rsquo;t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right. </p></div>

Q: How much does a five-gallon bucket of stain cover?

• <div><p>A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you&rsquo;re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you&rsquo;ll need.</p></div>

Q: What kind of paint do you use on a front porch?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-exterior-paint.htm">best exterior paint</a> for the job of painting your front porch depends on the material you&rsquo;ll be painting. Acrylic paint is often recommended for a wooden porch as it&rsquo;s durable and easy to apply. If your porch is made of concrete, you&rsquo;ll need to find a formula suited to that material. </p></div>

Q: Should you stain or seal cedar?

• <div><p>Staining or sealing a cedar deck will help it last longer. Cedar may be tough by nature, but without protection, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and mildew over time. Applying a stain, sealer, or both creates a shield against the elements, helping preserve the wood&rsquo;s strength and appearance. </p></div>
