Questions & Answers
I'm trying to just paint over my wooden vanity bench that is taupe and just want it white to match the vanity, itself. Is this something I can use just to paint over the taupe color of the seat?
Hi Mell, thanks for the question. Our Solid-Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer is designed more for exterior wood projects. For changing the color of your wood vanity bench, I'd suggest using one of our paint & primer in one products, such as our Ultra Interior Scuff-Defense Paint. If you have additional questions about your project, please reach out to us directly. Our customer care team is happy to help. -Ronald

How to prepare deck if it has been painted with a solid stain

If removing regular blue paint off the deck what do I do first
Hi Vera, thank you for your question. After removing an existing coating, you then want to clean with Behr All-In-One Wood Cleaner No. 063 (it helps with adhesion). Once the surface is clean and dry, you can apply the recommended 2 coats of Behr Solid Color Waterproofing Stain & Sealer. Feel free to reach out to us directly if you have further questions or concerns; we are always happy to help! -Alex
Can this be used in an electric paint sprayer?
Hi Peydon, thank you for your question. When spraying the Semi-Transparent Wood Stain, we recommend a high-quality pump sprayer with a variable tip or an airless sprayer with a .015-.019" tip. Work in small sections and immediately back-brush or use pad applicator to eliminate puddling and distribute the stain evenly. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

Customers say that Behr Premium Semi-Transparent Waterproofing Stain and Sealer offers excellent coverage and is easy to apply, often requiring only one or two coats for optimal results. Many users appreciate the wide range of color options and the product's ability to enhance the natural wood grain while providing good waterproofing. However, some customers have experienced issues with durability, noting that the stain may not last as long as advertised, particularly on horizontal surfaces. Overall, the product is well-regarded for its ease of use and aesthetic appeal, though users are advised to carefully consider color choices and application techniques for the best outcomes.
