If you’re anything like me, the day you finally decide to stain the deck is also the day the weather man was wrong. You walk outside, gather your supplies, open up the can of stain, and…. drip drop, it starts raining. The next day it’s too hot and humid. You push the stain to the back of your mind and focus on the kids and events you have going on, until one day you finally decide that deck is getting finished. But now it’s 40 degrees outside! These situations are exactly what the OLYMPIC Paints & Stains WEATHER-READY Truck Tour will help you handle with ease.
The WEATHER-READY Truck Tour will be traveling to Lowe’s stores in 21 cities across the Midwest. Along with a unique and educational home-improvement experience, the tour will allow you to be part of a Guinness World Record for the largest paintbrush mosaic!
As part of the OLYMPIC Paints & Stains event, visiting DIY-ers will experience three weather scenarios, and be equipped with the knowledge to overcome each of them. In the wet environment, you’ll get to put on a rain slicker and see how OLYMPIC Maximum stain can be applied to and penetrate damp wood. Now that rainy day won’t stop your plans!
Perhaps you didn’t want to work in the rain anyways. The hot environment simulation will give you a chance to see stain applied in warmer temperatures than typical stain. You’ll also get to use oversized adirondack chairs to view participants adding their paintbrushes from the day to the mosaic, working toward that Guinness World Record! And finally, for those cold days, an OLYMPIC brand ambassador will equip you with the knowledge you need to be able to apply stain in temperatures as low as 35 degrees. Check out the WEATHER-READY Truck Tour dates and locations below, and head over to Lowe’s to stop waiting and start saving!

Deck that was installed last year feels like the poster child of your blog. Didn’t get it stained due to rain, then it was too hot, then life just took over! I love the space and want to get it protected!
I would like to use this stain on some Adirondack chairs
I would use it on my side porch and deck
I would love to use the stain on a wooden bench and some chairs we have in the backyard.
I would love to use Olympic stain on two, wooden end tables. It would be nice to add some color! 🙂
We are moving from an apartment to our new townhome this July 5th! I am super excited to have my very own deck although It need some touching up and TLC! This is what I would love to use it on! Thanks so much for the chance!

Oh I really need to stain my deck this year, I would love to try the Olympic stain!
Our deck is in desperate need of staining!! And this sounds like a really cool product!
We have a deck in our backyard, so that is the most obvious choice. We also plan to replace our fence, so staining it would be a great alternative to letting it naturally gray.
I would love to use Olympic Stain on my tables and chairs!
I would like to redo my granddaughters dresser and our wooden porch swing.
I would use it on our outdoor wooden table.
I would use it to fix an old rocking chair and the deck.
I would love to use it on our patio furniture.
My deck needs to be stained soooo bad! I would love to use the olympic stain on it to protect the wood and freshen it up.
Thanks for the chance to win!
