Protect your deck frame from the very beginning and enhance the durability of your deck with FastenMaster's Deck Frame Coating. Designed to give your deck framing a protective moisture barrier, Deck Frame Coating will deter wood rot and decay on deck joists, beams, ledgers, posts and stair stringers, providing you with a deck to enjoy for years to come! To build your deck to withstand the elements, apply FastenMaster’s Deck Frame Coating with a standard bristle paint brush or a heavy duty, 3/8 inch nap roller. Apply a generous and consistent single layer of coating to your deck frame. On average, decking can be installed on top of freshly coated framing and dries in as little as 20 minutes. Please note: the average dry time can vary based on weather and material conditions.
