New to the forums, so hello all!
I've gotten a TON of different answers(in person and while researching articles on line) Anywhere from 3 weeks to 6 months, and as far out as a year
I'm in Tennessee and had a pressure treated pine fence put up at the end of March. I've heard that a way to test is to see if water soaks in or if it beads up on the wood. (Soaking in obviously being the sign that I can stain/seal).
I've taken a few pics this morning. See attached. It rained last night, but I poured some fresh water down a couple of the planks.
Should I go for it? I've read pro's/con's about oil vs water based, and I'm torn.... what does everyone here prefer? I fly a desk during the work week. Alas! I am VERY inexperienced with home improvements
Thanks for everyone's patience and assistance!
