Less transparent than expected
Would RecommendWe bought the semi-transparent stain in Greige and applied to a new fence that had dried out for almost a year and was pressure washed a few days before applying. We had no issues with application using a sprayer other than the dry fence (6-7% moisture) took a lot of product. We got about 125 square ft per gallon so had to buy more than expected.

Good product for color
Would RecommendPriced right, looks great once matched for color, easily applied, and lasts great time for color, but scrapes away and doesn’t keep for more than a year.
