Help! Need advice on deck stain/sealer. 2 years ago had deck sealed using SW product that was tinted a cedar color. That mess peeled in less than 6 mos. They are finally doing something about it. 

Currently stripping w/SW Strip-Ease & then will use SW Revive. 

I want the best natural looking stain & protestant to use.

  • 1. State you live in-Alabama
  • 2. Full Shade, Partial Shade, or Full Sun-Part shade but some full pm sun
  • 3. Type of Wood-most likely pressure treated pine approx 5 yrs old.
  • 4. Mold or Mildew Issues-YES
  • 5. Main Issues with Previous Stains-Peeling like crazy in less than 6 mos.

Use TWP 100 Series or Defy Extreme Stain for this.

Heres photos of current stripped look & previous stain. I also have covered screened in areas.

Was considering Restore a Deck since it is water based & less likely to peel since we're in rainy season? I'll take your ultimate recommendation. Cost is no object.

The RAD stain should work just as well as the other two. All three are penetrating stains that soak into the wood when applied correctly. It is the filing stains that dry on top of the wood that peel like in your picture.

Is cleaning & reallocation easy with all three? 

Thanks so much for your help & speedy replies. 😉
