Mold/mildew is not an issue
Never stained a deck before.

I understand many products can now be shipped to Canada. I would appreciate knowing the best stain to use for my deck. I would like it to be (as everyone does) as maintenance free as possible. From what I have read, semi transparent or semi solid is best? I know I need to wait 3-6 months before I stain and clean and brighten because of the mill glaze. But any help would be great!
