I used an inferior stain product on my child's swing set last year before I found this amazing site. I'm not going to redo it because it's a swing set and not a deck. It still looks fine. My question is, what should I do this year to keep it looking good for as long as possible? Should I clean and put more of the stain on? I don't want it to get too dark. Would it be ok to clean and put a clear water sealant on it? What do you guys recommend? Thanks!

I would just lightly clean to remove dirt and leave it alone. Do not add more stain. You cannot put a clear sealer on top of a stain.
