Best Answer

Don't paint it when your weather is very hot or very windy. The paint will crack or blister. The wind could blow dust or smething else onto the paint. You can stain it any time. I probably wouldn't stain it if the weather forecast says it will rain tomorrow. Whichever method you select, make sure the deck is clean and dust-free.
