Can Latitudes Decking and Railing be painted or stained?
While not recommended, Latitudes can be stained after three months of exposure to various weather conditions. When staining Latitudes, ensure that the stain is intended for use on composite wood products. By choosing to stain Latitudes, a relatively low-maintenance product changes to one that will require more upkeep. Always test a small hidden portion of the deck before staining the entire deck. Painting Latitudes is not recommended as most paints will not adhere to the surface well and will rapidly begin to peel. Composite wood products do not accept paint or stain as well as wood, therefore, it will not have the same appearance as painted or stained wood. Because Latitudes Capricorn has a polyethylene surface, it cannot be stained or painted. If you have more questions, please call (877) 463-8379.
