Makes me want to do more projects
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Valspar Quick Seal Exterior Oil-Based Stain for free from Influenster and Valspar in exchange for my honest review. I didn’t use it on my fence because I didn’t notice that’s what it is for until after I received it. Now I understand why the can is so big, compared to the much smaller cans that are used for little projects. Either way, I love the results this stain gave me for the little project I did do. I had an unfinished wood...

Beautiful and durable finish
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super easy to use, although the smell is a bit overwhelming and needs to be used in a very ventilated environment. The stain gives full coverage with very little drying time on raw wood and seems to be water resistant, at least it has been so far. Durability is yet to be seen however it does seem to be holding up well and has a beautiful finish.

Pre-Winter prep
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our fence is a few years old and the Texas weather puts any pretreating shame. I made glad to have this quick seal to keep it looking nice. My fence is cedar so I thought the lecan quick seal would not match but it actually looks great.

Looks good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this in the full size we used it on our deck and it looks beautiful. It was easy to use and dried quickly. I definitely had a strong smell but it didn’t linger for long.

Great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great color and coverage! I’m unsure of durability because we just painted it but the drying time was very quick in this Texas heat! Application was very easy just time consuming

Great quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Goes on really smooth, it does take. Couple of coats to get the true color. No harsh smell. Looks very durable and it should last several years. So far it has been pretty good about resisting any rain or sprinkler water that has it if. From what I see this is a good high quality stain.

Amazing stain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Waiting for it to dry, but so far my project using this oil base stain. I stained my deck and it looks beautiful. Application was really easy and the coverage is fantastic

Great coverage
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love how easy it was/is to use. It lasts very long. Some stuff only needs one coat, and others just need a couple. It has a small odor . It dries pretty fast for being a stain. It provides a great amount of coverage. Little goes a long way. I love that it’s weather resistant. The only con is when putting the lid back on if you use a hammer to reseal the can lid. I highly recommend it.

Easy to apply, easy to clean up. Nice finish.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So we just replaced all the boards on our trailer and as you can see, there was already a coat of sealant on the trailer. So today I opened up this Valspar sealant, which is an oil base. Took me 40 minutes to do the entire trailer cracks and crevices included. It dried rather quickly. The color is very nice, slightly darker than the other, which I believe was Minwax. But then it rained a little, kind of like a farmers rain, and I went out to se...

Beautiful results
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an oil-based product that in my opinion & experience is superior in performance & longevity to any water based product when applied. It leaves no streaks, no color difference even when heavily overlapped during application. It is easy to apply and I highly recommend application by brush or roll. It can be applied by spray but spraying is the most wasteful method and this product is too good to be applied wastefully. Highly recommend!

Beautiful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I have been doing numerous upgrades to our home, inside and outside. This summer, he stained our pool deck, but we still wanted to stain our wooden privacy fence. This was perfect for that project. Beautiful color and applies easily.

Streak free coating
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually don’t like oil-based varnish products but this one was really up to the mark. It was easy to use and did not run too much on application. I always use a cloth and not a brush to coat my furniture so maybe it was also that. Drying time was regular. Nothing too quick. And the smell I oddly like

Easy to apply. Looks great. Great quality stain.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful color. Easy to apply. Dries quicly. Clean application. Excellent oil based stain. I will be using for several projects, but I wanted to try on small samples before larger projects. The color was a little intimidating at first, but I ended up living it.

Good Versatile stain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this stain! The color isn’t too dark and it’s more of a natural look that isn’t dull looking. It’s easy to paint on and dries quick! It’s gets in the nooks and crannies really well
