We've put up a cedar fence and would like to use Armstrong Clark to stain. All of the photos I've seen (and reviews from pros) note that the Cedar semi is quite orange on cedar. We would rather have a deeper color, but not as dark as the Rustic Brown. Can someone recommend a blend of the stains that would lessen the orange but not look completely brown? Maybe 3:1 Rustic Brown to Cedar?

Thanks!
Jo

Try 1 Part Rustic Brown to 1 Part Amber.

This is an example I found of 1:1 rustic to cedar. It still feels too orange.
