Removing the on-site staining, sealing and clean up, saves money, time, and the environment.   A pre-finished product that is sealed on all sides, protects the wood from the elements.  Montana Timber Products semitransparent stain contains enough pigment to change the woods color to meet your design needs, but not enough to obscure the grain.  Site finished products are subject to the weather conditions and timing from installation.  Once installed matching weather to a paint crews schedule requires more time.  Which can leave your materials unprotected for extended periods of time.  Allowing wood to get wet and not dry out before staining and sealing it, is what causes the stain to not bond well.  Site finished wood, requires days of good weather to prepare for the stain, it should be cleaned and dry for 24-48 hours.  Once stain is applied it requires drying time, most stains require 10-12 hours of dry time.  The perfect forecast for 2-3 days all while arranging paint contractors and their schedules can be tricky.  A pre-finished, ready to install custom made product eliminates those headaches and improves the quality of the finished product.
