The DeckCorrect was easy to apply and did a nice job renewing our splintered and aged deck. We purchased (and tested on the deck) several colors based on the Cabot booklet and samples in store. However, it took 4 trips to Lowe’s to get the right color! That was highly frustrating for us as well as the paint department employees, I’m sure. We suggest that Cabot revisit the sample colors and possibly create a sample size so that gallons and gallons are not wasted.

4 gallons to cover a 20x16 ft deck?? Over 200$ to stain one deck?? Ridiculous if you ask me! Never again

Will use again. Get a small sample to try.

First time using and very happy w quality. Thick coverage with a roller. Price on sale was great. Has a slight gritty feel due to particles meant to make it last longer, explained to me in store. Water cleanup and fast tacky. Maybe take a small can home of the regular pair as ours looks redder than the brochure chip.

A stain we keep coming back to

We have been using this for several projects now. First our shed and now our deck. It seems pretty tough and looks great.

Those complaining need to follow the instructions

Would Recommend

It does not cause wood to rot...smh. You caused the rot by not checking the moisture in your wood deck prior to applying. If you trap moisture under any layer, you'll get rot, mold, etc.. I've had this down for 3 years and only touch up the high traffic areas just this year.

Great coverage!

Our decks and ramp are freshly painted and look great! The paint looks as though it will “hold up”well for a long while.
