How to Seal LP Siding

>* ### Step 1: _Preparation_

* Ensure that the LP siding is clean—if not, clean it thoroughly using a mild detergent, water, and a soft cloth.

* Allow for the LP siding to dry completely.

* Cover surrounding areas (windows, doors, decks) with painter’s tape to avoid inadvertent product contamination.

* ### Step 2: _Application of Primer (optional but recommended)_

* Apply a primer of medium thickness that is compatible with stain and LP siding.

* Allow the primer a minimum curing period of 4 hours.

* ### Step 3: _Product Application_

* Gently stir the product before use to ensure even pigment dispersion.

* Using a high-quality paintbrush, apply a thin coat of the stain on a small section of the LP siding.

* Allow 5-10 minutes for the stain to penetrate.

* Using a clean cloth (such as terry cloth) that will not leave behind fibers or lint, wipe away any excess stain.

* Continue in like fashion for the remaining sections of the LP siding.

* ### Step 4: _Wait for Drying_

* Give the stain coating at least 2 hours of unadulterated drying time before applying the second coat.

* ### Step 5: _Second Coat_

* Apply the second coat of the stain and repeat steps 3 and 4.
