Q: Is wood stain flammable after it dries?

• <div><p>Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.</p></div>

Q: Should you choose to seal or stain your deck for optimal protection and appearance?

• <div><p>Both sealing and staining can help make your deck look better almost immediately. However, deck stain may not contain waterproofing components, leaving the surface vulnerable to moisture damage. To protect your deck from winter weather, apply a sealer or a stain-and-sealer combination product.</p></div>

Q: What finish is best for exterior porch paint?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-types-exterior-paint.htm">Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches</a> because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don&rsquo;t want paint that&rsquo;ll show every mark like matte, but you don&rsquo;t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.</p></div>

Q: How long should wood stain sit before wiping off?

• <div><p>If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood&rsquo;s grain for best results.</p></div>

Q: Can you stain over a peeling stain?

• <div><p>You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it&rsquo;s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you&rsquo;re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.</p></div>
