Why this finish stands out
Unlike opaque stains, this product preserves the wood’s natural texture with a semi-transparent layer, so you can enjoy authentic grain while gaining substantial protection from the elements. The 100 Series formulation is purpose-built for exterior wood projects, delivering a durable barrier that resists moisture intrusion and UV fade over years of outdoor exposure. The rustic color option makes it easy to coordinate with traditional brown tones and complements natural landscapes, rustic exteriors, and weathered wooden features.
Ideal applications
- Exterior decks, rails, and stair treads
- Fences, gates, and pergolas
- Wood siding, shutters, and trim details
- Sheds, gazebos, and outbuildings
- Any outdoor wood where you want to preserve grain and achieve a matte, natural look
Application and usage tips
For best results, apply to clean, dry wood using your preferred method—brush, roller, or sprayer—for an even, uniform coat. Expect a versatile coverage rate between 100–400 sq ft per gallon, depending on the surface porosity. Plan for the recommended recoat window of 30 and allow a full cure within 24 hours to achieve maximum durability. Use in outdoor environments with adequate ventilation, and follow standard outdoor-finishing best practices for optimal longevity.
