Depends on how wet is was when installed. But on average we recommend staining after about 2 seasons of exposure.
Pressure treated wood may be painted. First, you need to figure out if your wood is ready to paint. Do this by putting a couple of drops of water on the spot to be covered, the wood is too wet to coat if it beads up, give it some time to dry. If the water is readily absorbed, you may begin to paint. You should use an oil-based primer and a high quality acrylic (latex) paint. If you prefer to stain it, purchase a high quality oil-based stain.

∙ 12y agoIf you've sanded down through the wood veneer to where you are seeing plain pressed wood, first use a sanding sealer. This will keep the new paint from penetrating the pressed wood, which would cause it to expand. After the sanding sealer dries, apply a primer and let dry (refer to instructions on appropriate drying time; it could be several days.) Now you are ready to paint!
