If you're putting a sealer on PT lumber, you should wait at least a year before applying it - PT lumber is "wet" when new and needs to dry out before any sealers are applied - if you do apply a sealer, it won't go on very well. With good PT lumber, though, you shouldn't need a sealer unless you're concerned about appearance (and for the joists, why would you be?). The PT lumber shouldn't rot for decades, even if exposed to moisture. That's the whole point of PT lumber. What you need to make sure you use, however, is fasteners that are DESIGNED to work with |
