Great Review!! I'm gonna give this product a try!

[@lawoftheuniverse8089]

Great Video Dwayne...It looks like a pretty good product and just what I need...Thx for this Bro...!!!

[@MRKNIGHTNDAY]

Great video. Thanks mate.

[@RBXXXX]

Thanks Bro. Great review.

[@arthilliker3721]

Getting ready to use the Cedar on a Wishing Well I just built for my wife. 7 foot tall at the peak, to look right in our yard. Thanks for a good video !! It'll come out beautiful !!

[@arthilliker3721]

Update: came out really nice. I sprayed our bridge also. Each took about a gallon. Putting a new top on our decks now and will continue with the Natural Cedar. Some people see this as WORK .... I see it as fun and constructive !!

[@jesusbarajas943]

First chorro of water looks like a happy face!! Great vid man.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Thanks bro! Lol

[@JoieJuice18ChosenOne]

I just brought some of that for my wooden fence , works nice , thanks for showing Us it's really works to protect wood ...

[@frederichorner572]

Thank you! We have to replace a side porch and lumber is sky high, so we bought untreated bc of cost and hope this sealer works.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Hope it goes well for you brother!

[@chrisj7663]

Thanks Dwayne. Really helpful. I think I would be tempted to waterproof the boards before I fitted them so that they would be sealed on the edges and the bottom, but in fairness - the boards might already have been fitted when you acquired the trailer. In that case - I guess I would have done the same as you. I think in time water spray from driving in wet conditions will ingress into the wood from underneath and some water might seep into the wood from the sides of the boards if it drips down from the top surface.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

You have a very valid point brother. I wish I could've sprayed all around the boards individually

[@ChrisJ144]

@@DwayneDelacruz Thanks. It’s all about learning for everyone. Every day is a school day as the saying goes. In any case - it only came to mind because I’m about to work on some decking but have the luxury of being able to treat the boards before fitting them.

[@enjoynaturehoney]

Great video bro👍🏽

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Thanks brotha!

[@daxshell242]

just getting a cedar wood table and want to see how this holds up over a year. would love an update, seeing as its been nearly a year!

[@DwayneDelacruz]

I'm sure it would, if it's not in extreme heat conditions. Probably got to respray it after a year if so

[@doomsday_TV]

I want to know how you cleaned out your sprayer make that part two

[@desert4seat]

Damn! That’s a nice trailer bro. 😮

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Thanks brother

[@NextLevelFishingTx]

Is it important to do the underside of the boards. I'm using this soon for the first time on a trailer.

[@TravisInCanada1]

Cool demo man, hey I am no expert but shouldn't that decking have a 1/16 or even an 1/8 gap between the boards for water to run off or no?

[@UNITED2009100]

I just installed new pine construction 2 X 6's in my trailer. I put in the first board and used screws from the under side. They placed in the second board with heavy glue on the edge. Used a furniture clamp to pull it tight to the first board and again used screws from the under side. Did my entire trailer that way. Absolutely no void between each board. The boards were Thompson Water Sealed before I put them in and then applied a second coat the top of the deck after completely the install of all new wood sides. Everything is now coated with Thompson Water Seal. looks great and now I shall see if it will last or not, Water appears to repel off everything. Yes, it cannot run off in between the deck boards because they are all glued together. So far so good with regular construction grade #2 pine. Got boards at Home Depot as their lumber looked real good. Treated lumber is not the best grade and is usually not uniform in thickness. Thats why I choose to use the pine.

[@MrThenry1988]

Might have done both sides. Good show.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

You can definitely do both sides on your project 💪

[@adilkhan7020]

303 rd subscriber here. Is the trailer easier to keep clean with this product ? Any worn spots you had to go over ?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Adil Khan first of all, thank you so much for subscribing man!! I appreciate that big time! To answer your question, I actually haven’t used the trailer in awhile, it’s been in the sun baking for about a month lol, but if you’re talking about keeping it clean from spills, I’m sure whatever you spill on top of the wood after the water sealer has dried will just sit on top of the wood bubbled up and you can probably just wipe it off...I have not spilled anything on it yet...just the water that you saw me spill in the video. After 2 months of baking in the sun at 105+ degrees a day, the wood looks a little different, as if the sealant is wearing off, though I haven’t tried to spill liquid on it to test out if it is still working properly...maybe I’ll do a 2 month update video on it, to see if the sealant is still good 😃

[@baseballjake1000]

Pouring out the fiji water, now that’s a flex haha

[@DwayneDelacruz]

😂 hell yeah had too

[@acemcdaniels1579]

Great video!! thanks for showing how simple it really is. How many coats is needed and how much time is necessary between coats??

[@DwayneDelacruz]

I just did one solid coat, it was pretty good 🙂. It was my first time doing it.

[@88rushrocks]

Been using this stuff for the last few years on different projects with no issues. I have now did a 12x12 shed out of OSB and I live in Oregon where it rains 8 months out of the year so this will be the ultimate test . ?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Maybe haha

[@woodspirit98]

Sub # 399. Best video I've seen on sealing wood floor on trailer. I had to laugh when you were sweeping it because I was thinking what if you used a blower instead, it would be better. Then you grabbed a blower. Yup. Best one on you tube.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Hey man, you don’t know how much I appreciate your support and positive comment! Thanks for subbing man! I hope I can get back onto doing more videos, I’ve been busy with a lot of other things lately! Stay up bro 🙏🏼

[@woodspirit98]

What? You have a life? That's ok I do too. Just do what you do and have fun doing it. You're videos are real and natural. They help people and that's all that matters. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

jayson rader yessir! Goodluck!!

[@jaysonrader8325]

Dwayne Delacruz it seems like the whole process is pretty easy. I’m going to take a brush burner and do the deck and then seal it

[@DwayneDelacruz]

jayson rader nice! Should come out great and it’ll last a long time!

[@gybx4094]

The new TWS in the "green" 5 gallon barrel is much different than their traditional water seal in the red container. The newer sealant is much thicker and most hand pump sprayers will clog. I apply with a long handle deck brush. It will darken the wood, but I'm OK with that. I've found the newer "green container" formula lasts longer than their original "red" brand.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Gy Bx oh nice! Thanks for the info man!

[@amthevision8931]

Is it worth running through airless with 515 tip ? I have a new construction property with deck to seal. Green barrel is available in 1gal near me

[@dare2scheme904]

They've been in business a long time bro

[@skyflyer2494]

Good thing it only rains down seeing how you didn't treat both sides of the trailer deck.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

No shit right bro lol. I’ll replace the boards later anyways 😂

[@skyflyer2494]

@@DwayneDelacruz just messin with ya. I just did a little trailer myself but I was lucky enough I could turn it over to get the other side. Lol It would have sucked trying to do the other side on your trailer. The top looks nice though 👌

[@DwayneDelacruz]

@@skyflyer2494 haha yeah I get ya, I love sarcasm 😂. Glad it doesn’t rain from both sides up and down Forreal though, that would be crazy weird too lol! Lucky you though! Is it still lasting? How long has it been? I haven’t checked mine out yet.

[@Zakdj27]

Does the wood deck get slippery when it rains with the waterproofer on?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Zakdj27 good question! I’ll check it next time!

[@chesterogilvie1393]

It does

[@MissCarole2005]

Apparently it can be slippery to walk on when it rains. What do you think?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Hmmm, I've never walked on it while raining...could be a possibility though.

[@larry3702]

I put this Thompson's on my new hand rails and they turned black. I'm new to this DIY life did I do something wrong and was that mildew?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

We're they wood hand rails?

[@deecee6355]

Hey How long time does the water stay on the wood like that?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Until it evaporates

[@mculkin]

The water said :D

[@wildernessman760]

Shouldn't do that in direct sun light or when it's hot. The water sealer won't work right. It will dry on the wood before it can absorb into the grains.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Thanks for the tip! I'll do that next time!

[@AuthorVioletK]

Did you see that the first water test turned into a smiley face? God winks down! 😄🙏🙌

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Oh no I didn't, have go check it out again haha 😆

[@kobekiko475]

Will this help from making the wood crack? Or like peel? I want to do a gazebo and I want to make sure it helps preserve it? Thanks in advance

[@DwayneDelacruz]

I think it does help. But you'd have to apply it every year I think. I'd make your gazebo out of treated wood.

[@davefreeman1499]

It works good but it only lasts about a year so you need to reapply.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Yea

[@user-yc3fd3et7s]

Mine has white specs all over the deck

[@loftycraft]

Is that stuff grippy as heck? Or is it really slippery?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Little grippy and then the grippiness fades after a week or so and it feels normal

[@loftycraft]

@@DwayneDelacruz oh for sure. Yeah I’m looking for a super strong clear like this but grippy bc I use em for my art pieces that I sell.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

@@loftycraft oh okay, man this is mainly just for costing the wood so it doesn't get ugly with the weather. I believe they have a product that adds grip as it's main purpose...just don't know what it's called ha

[@loftycraft]

@@DwayneDelacruz no worries!

[@bol.8749]

How much did it take to do it?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Bo L. I could’ve went lighter, but about half or less than half of the can

[@dominiquecedillo4751]

Any update? I'm thinking of using this on my papermache project (making halloween decorations for outside) wondering if this will work ?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

Dominique Cedillo that’s a good idea!! It might work great or it might not! But water just repels off my trailer, so this stuff works pretty good!

[@georgejesson1944]

How long did it last?

[@DwayneDelacruz]

About a year

[@vickyfindley5947]

Yeah but how do you open the can? You showed everything except for that.

[@mytubebobbie06h]

It would have been better if you did each board individually that way you could get each side, especially the end grain sides. I, personally, would have done two coats with a week of dry time in between and stain it as well. Need to also protect it against UV, which is what affects everything. It degrades the effectiveness of the sealer, then starts the decaying of the wood.

[@DwayneDelacruz]

It's okay, I'll do it when I have to eventually replace boards

[@EdMcCornhole]

NOT the cedar brown paint stain. Stuff is crap. Peeled on my deck. Do not buy Thompson cedar color stain. Waterbased garbage.

[@jwick4320]

Have you found any deck sealer or stain sealer that does work? I have peeling problem with paint stain that I got from Sherwin Williams. And I prepped it very very before using.

[@EdMcCornhole]

@@jwick4320 I think an alkyd oil based exterior stain is the only way. Thompson's is water-based. However, it did stay on my fence. To be fair it still looks good. But because I live in Canada , a ton of snow and ice sits on my deck for 5 months. That is the problem.

Well could have had total vegetation killer in it. If so there goes the grass where he dumped it😅
