What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this deck stain for exceptional coverage, ease of application, and proven long-term durability. Most highlight full, even coverage with a single coat, smooth application with brush or roller, and quick drying. Many reviewers have used it for decades, noting it deeply penetrates wood and maintains color and protection over time. Water-based cleanup adds convenience. Color options deliver rich, natural tones, though some find actual shades darker than samples. While several acknowledge the higher price point, most consider the quality and lasting performance well worth the investment and consistently recommend it to others.

Quality product
Would RecommendEasy to apply and a single coat does indeed provide an adequate protective sealer coat to repel moisture and UV damage to the wood. It is a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. What I can't yet rate is how durable the sealer is - it does recommend reapplication annually, so I suspect like most all sealers, it will last about a year before a maintenance coat is needed.

Impressive
Would RecommendI was impressed with how quickly Lowes got my order delivered. Besides that it was impressive the way the gallon of stain was packaged. There was almost no way it could have been damaged and it arrived in perfect condition.
