What Customers Are Saying

The Cabot Solid Color Deck Stain received mixed reviews. Many customers reported the stain provided great coverage, was easy to apply, and resulted in a beautiful, refreshed appearance. However, a significant number experienced issues with the stain peeling, cracking, and failing prematurely, often within 1-2 years. The long-term durability and weathering resistance seem inconsistent, with the stain not holding up well in high-traffic or high-moisture areas.

Great stain holds up well in the Northwest

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried other stains. A builder told me about Cabot. I have never used anything else for any of my building projects decks, etc. that I’ve had and built.

Perfect stain for my Redwood Deck

Best Cabot product ever

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I built a lake dock with drop in cedar panels. To get a good redwood color I painted the cedar planks with Cabot acrylic soli stain and sealer. What a home run. The panels are beautiful and most importantly my wife is ecstatic with the finish. The coverage was very good and it very easy to do. At age 80. Could not be happier. The acrylic had no VOC or odor. What a fine product. Looks better than my neighbors docks who used trex.

This is a wonderful product!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've been talking about staining the deck for some time. Bought the Cabot and we are thrilled with the results!! It was easy to apply - we used a semi-rough roller. It dried quickly and looks great! The previous owner worked on his Harley on the deck and left major oil stains. The redwood covered them completely in one coat! We have some more exposed wood that will need some treatment and we'll be going !back for more Cabot

Seems to be a good product

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I bought the stain, I asked for something that will last and this product was recommended. It is a nice solid color as I wanted and coverage is really good. I know some folks have complained about premature peeling so I hope that is an unusual situation. I am happy with how it looks and the ease it went on.

Great product!

Power washed my 20+ year old deck and stained with Cabot Solid Color Acrylic Siding Stain in early spring. I've gotten SO many compliments. I used the Cordovan Brown. It is a deep, rich color and made all of the boards (mostly old but some new) all match. That's a big deal to me.

Amazing coverage, instant transformation!👏🏻👏🏻

Would Recommend

I read a lot of reviews from real people- not AI l- and we decided to put on a fresh new suit on a hobo of a deck. WOW! The mission brown solid provides absolutely amazing coverage, and is a rich, gorgeous, complimentary color. We loved the results on the front deck that we can’t wait to tackle the back deck. Never thought those words would escape my lips, but it looks so good!

Not worth the money!!

Would Not Recommend

We had this product put on our deck after doing a remodel and extending our deck and the product started to peel and there's sap coming up through it plus the color, we thought we were getting was supposed to be a dark brown but looks more like a plum color.
