What Customers Are Saying
The stain provides good coverage and a natural-looking finish, with many customers reporting it was easy to apply and dried quickly. The color was often described as rich and transparent, allowing the wood grain to show through. However, some customers reported issues with the tint or mixing, resulting in an undesirable color. There were also concerns about the stain's durability, with some customers reporting premature peeling or weathering, especially on decks. Overall, the stain may be a good choice for fences and pergolas, but customers should carefully inspect the color and expect more frequent reapplication on high-traffic areas.

Would RecommendI like the dark color and the level of transparency so I can still see the wood grain. It shows dirt and mud from my dogs as expected, but has been easy to clean with just a hose and push broom. I did a 24x12 ft deck and have about half left but still need to do the steps and a small 5x5 step up, so I am glad I got the 5 gallon.

Transparent :)
Would RecommendStain was used and worked well on my child’s mud table. The stain is transparent so it felt like I was paining nothing but it actually put a coat on.
