What Customers Are Saying
This high-quality stain and sealer provides excellent coverage and protection for outdoor wood surfaces. It requires only one coat to achieve a beautiful, uniform finish that covers cracks and imperfections. The stain is easy to apply, dries quickly, and is durable against weather and wear. However, some customers have experienced issues with color matching or premature peeling and discoloration, especially on horizontal surfaces. Proper surface preparation and following application instructions carefully are important to get the best long-term results.

Sealed Our Old Fence
Would RecommendWe moved to a house with an old fence that needed to be powerwashed and sealed for weatherproofing. We chose Valspar Stain and Seal Solid with a white base and in the color Heathlands. Our fence looks great, and our neighbors have given us many compliments. Backbrushing is definitely needed if you spray. I ended up painting by hand because our old, splintered wood needed a good first coat. We ended up finishing the project with just one coat!

Lowes Veldspar Stain
An excellent stain. I bought the same product in 2016. The stain is still holding up in 2026. I will repaint my home eventually! The best stain money can buy!

Buyer beware.
Would Not RecommendOrdered Valspar Potato Skin Solid Exterior Wood Stain and Sealer in One (1 quart), but received untinted product. When I called to request a return, the associate told me that the only way to return or refund the item is to drive to a Lowe's location, as my closest store is a three hour round trip. They said I couldn't process a return by phone or mail, nor get a refund for the incorrect product sent. Buyer beware. I feel like a 126 billion dollar company just stole $30 from me and my family. ...

Good product and would use again
This was the first time using the product and I was pleased. The stain held to the brush well and applied evenly. It did take two coats for a true color cover.
