Hey Play Me, I just stained my deck. But it seems like it might rain later. What would happen if it does?
Hello! Rain can potentially disrupt the drying process of the stain. If it rains before the stain has a chance to dry, it could be washed off or diluted, which may cause an uneven appearance or a less effective protective seal.
Oh no, that sounds bad! Is there anything I can do to prevent it?
If you have any water-resistant tarps or covers, you could cover your deck with them to prevent the rain from directly hitting the stain. However, you should ensure they won't rub against the deck's surface and smudge the stain.
And what if the rain has already started, and I didn't manage to cover it in time?
In that case, you might have to restain your deck after the surface has dried. It could take more time and effort, but it's important to ensure your deck is properly protected and aesthetically pleasing.
