What Customers Are Saying
The semi-transparent stain appears to have mixed results. Many customers reported positive experiences, noting it went on easily, provided good coverage and color, and offered lasting protection. However, some were disappointed, finding it more like a paint that did not properly soak into the wood, leading to peeling or wearing off quickly. Careful preparation and following instructions closely seem important for best results.

Would RecommendBought new wood picnic table at Lowes and got this stain sealer, went on nice and instructions stress ONE COAT. I felt like putting on another just cuz that's what I do, but didn't. Also used to polyurethan on top of that, but again, nope, we'll see how well this stain and sealer is! Not gonna lie, a little nervous due to I DID the vinegar step, followed everything to the T. Do love this chill color, so far so good! Fingers crossed!

Problem getting it tinted when using curbside pick
Would Not RecommendIt was not tinted when I arrived and the associate took it back in to have it tinted. When I looked at the order details there was no color listed in the details. Make sure you don't forget that.
Great Deck paint/stain
Would RecommendGreat paint/stain. I pressure wash and re-stain every two years. This is my third time using this product. It stands up very well to the elements, and it gets a pounding from the sun. Not to mention to debris that falls off the trees.
