Can't use sealer over paint. Made for raw wood. Sorry, have to strip it now.
Hello Deb,
I would suggest calling the Thompson one 800 customer service line for their suggestions regarding their product failure.
I know with BEHR deck seal products they have excellent customer support and advice. They are guaranteed-even provide free replacement deck sealing and deck wash product shipped to your home.
I hope this helps.
Hi. Use mineral spirits or paint thinner and remove sealer. You may need to repaint. Lesson learned, right? Sorry.
Is there a chance that the wood isn't really dry, and that it is keeping the sealer from curing? I am in NE PA where it only rained twice this summer, once for 45 days and then again for 30 days. I don't think our decking will be dry until the end of next summer. Maybe the wood needs time to dry out so the sealer can cure.
