My easter weekend fun has been pressure washing decks and other yard work. I need a opinion on http://www.lowes.com/pd_124669-71-FLD420-05_1z13zqtZ1z0ylvu__?productId=3374328&pl=1#img

I have had enough of Thompsons and Olympic is rated pretty poorly in the comments. This stuff seems to be better liked, is is available, and reasonably priced. Any thoughts in the general masses?

    The neighbors wife likes my deck. Sometimes she and my wife use my deck at the same time. My neighbor likes my deck also..........

    A better question... Do you like it when they use your deck? ;)

    And this is why I have a concrete patio instead of a deck ...

    My neighbor used this stain on his fence. Put it on a couple years ago and is just now starting to fade.
    Make sure you like the color before putting on, it is a bit "bright" for the first year or so, definitely makes wood look freshly stained.

    WOW, a underailed answer :win:

    No matter what happens, it is going to look better than it did before I started washing it. The stuff I used before seems to last about 6 months, if I can get 2 years out of it being sealed. Thanks

    Thompsons is crap and Olympic isn't much better. The stuff that was good when I was in the business was Superdeck.
