Q: What exterior paint can handle extreme heat?

• <div><p>Just like how acrylic paint is one of the best options for full sun exposure, it is also the winner when it comes to the best paint types for homes that experience extreme heat. Again, you'll want to choose neutral, lighter-colored paints for the best results. These paint colors stand the best chance against scorching summer heat. </p></div>

Q: How many coats of stain is too much?

• <div><p>Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don&rsquo;t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.</p></div>

Q: Does pressure-treated wood last longer if it’s painted?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-pressure-treated-wood-last.htm">Pressure-treated wood lasts</a> at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects. </p></div>

Q: Will a second coat of stain even out?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-stain-wood.htm">Adding a second coat of stain to wood</a> can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.</p></div>
