Congratulations on getting the deck done.  you were not kidding when you said the deck was large.  22 Gallons of onetime would have definately been very expensive.  Keep it in mind if you do any other outdoor wood projects that need to be sealed.  You will be very happy with it.  Enjoy your deck.

I have to stresss again the onetimewood product.  I have built numerous decks and have used just about everykind of deck sealer out there and none compare to the one time wood.  Rule of thumb, each $10 per gallon generally equals 1 year of wear before resealing.  That is why the products costing 20 to 30 buck need to be reapplied every two to three years and if you have a lot of traffic or harsh sun even sooner.  I don't work for bond industries but when I find a product that works I highly recommend it.  For a comparison, the other products are like using stabil compared to using PRI-G for fuel treatment.  Yes PRI-G is more expensive but how much better does it work.  I think most of us here can agree that it is a much superior product to the stabil and that is my experience with the onetime wood product compared to the other ones out there.  I really think you would be doing yourself a disservice if you did not at least check it out.  Here is the website again www.onetimewood.com

I can tell you from personal experience the only brand I would ever use anymore is called one time wood.  Here is the link to their site http://www.onetimewood.com/     We stained my deck and the deck of my best friend several years ago with this product and it still looks great.  My neighbors used cuprinol and another used aa product by flood.  Within two years they were re-applying the product, but not me.  Yes it is expensive, but the amount of time it saves you from not having to re-apply it every two years is well worth it.  I highly recommend this product to anyone getting reaady to do their deck or childs swingset etc.

I have a Makita electric trimmer that I am very happy with.  I purchased it from AMazon.com
