I have a home made deck with wolmanized stringers and standard SPS deck pieces. I would like to paint the top pieces with Cabot's Deck Correct - a heavy latex product.
How dry should the wood be before painting?
Our climate is northwest, so that the wood may hold more moisture year-round than it would in other climates.
Thank for your help!

if such a machine could be used to smooth the surface of a wood deck? I know there are concerns about toxic dust from the treated wood because of the chemicals used to preserve it but I wonder if someone out there in Internet land has experience with belt sanding a treated lumber deck? O_o
Ya know Greg, you should open up your own consumer testing accreditation lab like Fretwell Labs. "We do all the testing so you don't have to Fret.
Those guarantees are useless. Even if you proved everything was done right and the wood still rotted beyond being useless, all they will do is give you more wood. You still have to rebuild the structure yourself.
