I had a new deck installed last October. We used treated lumber.

When should I get some type of sealer to apply to this deck?

What is the best to use?

Thanks in advance.


I'd rent a power washer and clean it good then wait a week of dry
weather and finish it with anything but thompsons.

Thompson's used to be OK till few years ago (at least in Calif) they
had to stop making it oil and go with water. Now I wouldn't use it
either.
