What Customers Are Saying

The product provides good coverage and is easy to apply, reviving old wood surfaces with a uniform look. It only requires one coat and holds up well to weather and pressure washing. However, some customers reported issues with color matching and the stain peeling or wearing off prematurely, especially on high-traffic areas. Overall, the product is of good quality when applied properly, but users should be cautious about the color and longevity.

No tint

Would Not Recommend

Ordered via mail. No tint and no real way to get ahold of customer service. Extremely frustrating waste of money.

Would Not Recommend

Don't sell the option to tint online if you're only going to send the base without the tint.

Exactly what I needed for my project

Would Recommend

I have a split rail fence that is about 40 years old made of pressure treated wood. Over the years it has gotten gray and not that great looking so I decided to give it some color to make it look up to date. The Valspar Solid Exterior wood stain and sealer did the trick and made my fence look brand new.

It holds tight and never wavers.

This product is very good for flooring and groove. I would recommend it to my family and friends.
