Q: My deck is made of pressure-treated lumber but I want to add a bit of color – what stain colors look good on treated pine?
A: Pressure-treated wood is often left "as-is" without being coated in a gorgeous deck stain color because many home owners think you can’t use coating on top of the wood treatment. Luckily, that isn't correct. As long as you choose stains that complement the pressure-treated look you have a world of deck stain colors to choose from. Newer decks built with pressure-treated lumber should choose a light-colored wood stain because once you go dark with stain you cannot go back. Older decks, however, should choose something a little bit more of a punch of color to help hide imperfections. Below are some great stain colors for pressure-treated decks.
