What Customers Are Saying

The product appears to offer good coverage and durability, with many customers reporting that only one coat was needed to achieve satisfactory results. The stain was described as easy to apply and able to withstand the elements, filling in cracks and crevices well. However, some customers experienced issues with color matching, premature peeling or discoloration, and the stain being too thick or difficult to apply. Overall, the product seems to be a reliable choice for protecting and reviving outdoor wood surfaces, though proper surface preparation is important for best results.

Product is great, easy to apply, and covers well. Person working in the paint department seemed confused on mixing the formula for the can lid I brought in but was able to fill my order.

This stain was used to re-paint my car port. It covered the wood easily and looked beautiful after it dried. I have noticed people that are walking by pointing out my new paint job.

Thanks for leaving a review. I'm sorry that color variances from can to can created an issue. Slight color variances do exist from batch to batch...

Problem getting it tinted when using curbside pick

Would Not Recommend

It 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.
