Rough sawn surfaces, such as siding or fences, may require two coats. Apply Superdeck only at the rate which the wood will absorb. Over application may result in a tacky finish that can affect performance. All Superdeck Stains and Finishes are designed to provide your wood with excellent resistance to water damage. Superdeck Transparent Stain is designed to do this without beading water.
Water sheets off the wood surface and allows the wood to breathe naturally.
Superdeck Log Home Oil Finish is formulated to bead water on the surface while protecting your wood from water damage. Always test a small area first before staining the entire project. Application on redwood and cedar should always be followed with Superdeck Wood Brightener . New cedar and redwood contain high levels of tannin and may start to gray or blacken within the first year. If so, clean it with Wood Brightener.
