Wood Decks: Painting Vs Staining
I have an older house that I recently rehabbed. We put replaced the old wood decking with new. I am trying to decide if I should stain the deck or if I should paint the deck? I am leaning towards painting it thinking that it might last longer between touch ups. Most of the deck is covered with the exception of the steps and the landing.
I just want to do whatever is less maintenance. Also, if anyone has any particular products that work well or application advice, I would appreciate the input.
Many thanks!
