Would this work to spray stain a wooden fence?

If you made the stain really thin, I think it would, but you may need a 2nd coat!

I doubt you'd like the results! The sprayer puts out a rather uneven (for painting) spray and has a limited range of spray patterns which are are simply controlled by the nozzle. I'd recommend an inexpensive paint sprayer. It's also designed to work with a very thin liquid.

I am thinking you can use it on a newly stained table. It is very gentle, no chemicals.....It may temporarily darken the wood but after applying you wait a few hours and then wipe it off. It really is so great on my wooden counters which are unfinished. If the wood is sealed with polyurethane or something like that, the cream wood just lay on the top and not penetrate the wood. I don't believe a stained wood would be a problem as long as it not sealed with anything else.....

Friends used it on newly stained wooden counters and it looked great. I'm not sure if it depends on the type of stain -- and whether it interacts with the cream somehow? Maybe test it in a hidden area first, just to be sure?

I would not waste my time with this Paint Sprayer. I found the paint or stain has to be so thin it becomes all most useless.

Its a clear liquid, i have sprayed it on wood (white painted wood) and it has had no staining. I would spot test tho just in case to see if it works for you

Yes. For all sprayers you need to thin paint. I used this sprayer to do a fence in solid stain and that had to be thinned. It worked great once I got the right viscosity which was easy to accomplish with the provided measurement bucket and viscosity cup. Also, check the paint manufacturer's ratio for thinning which should be on the can.

Probably not a good idea; think of this stuff as a water based stain. It would pretty much run everywhere.

I used it for fence stain, so I never had it pointed down but I assume with the right consistency of stain it will do a good job.

Is it wood? Then yes you can use it. It works best on bare wood, if the wood is already painted or stained it will be less effective.

I did not keep it long enough to test it on wood doors. I would rent a pro sprayer on jobs that are critical.

Brenda, Thanks for your inquiry. This product can work on top of a stained surface, but it works best on an unpainted/unstained porous surfaces as it is designed to penetrate into a porous surface rather than sit on top (which it would do on stained wood). I would rather recommend the Plugger 25 which is a flat sheen (almost no change to the surface appearance) acrylic water sealer that is designed to go on both painted and unpainted surfaces. It is available on Amazon.com searching for "Rainguard Plugger 25". You will get up to 300 sq'/gallon per coat on stained wood depending on the surface texture. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Best Regards, George Carson Exterior Performance Coatings 630-675-4509

I would not use it for that big of a project. This is a great product for small jobs but you would be better served with a sprayer with more coverage for a large fence or wall.

I rebuilt a pickett fence located in SE PA in August of 2013 and dipped each board into this product, allowed it to soak for 5 minutes and then air dried before installing. It has to soak into the wood and dries to a silver grey color. I see no deterioration over the last 20 months. If your wood is not sealed, I think that this could be sprayed on. It comes as a water soluble powder..

We used it on the sides of our cabinets which were particle board with a coating and it took the stain just fine. You'd have to test it but my guess is that it would work.

YES this paint sprayer will work very well to paint wood furniture. Just don't get to near to the furniture and keep the paint flow as low a possible. We painted our house, board and bat, and six foot redwood fence both turned out very nice. As you see our projects are big. If this is all you are planing to paint maybe you should take a look at smaller unit.

absolutely! Just remember, don't spray directly onto the wood, spray onto the cloth liberally instead.

This sprayer has Viton seals which lend itself to hydrocarbon compatibility. Oil based stains would generally fall into this category. However, I have to agree with another person who responded to your question. This use will really be a mess to clean up and would probably cause you to dedicate the sprayer to the "oil" use. If you have a lot of fence to treat, dedicating the sprayer to oil use may not be a bad idea.
