1. Would Defy semi-transparent stain work for my low lying deck or is there a better alternative? Maybe something that allows the wood to breadth?

2. I am leaning towards Defy semi-transparent because it comes in gray because the sides of my deck and my window trim are painted cape code gray. Are there alternative recommended stains that come in gray?

3. Given that my deck was previously painted, would I get better visual product with a semi-solid stain especially since it is a older deck?

Thanks
