It was the same stain we used on our front deck which gets northwest exposure and is partially covered. Not taking that into account we used the same stain as explained above and of course it has completely faded. What stain do you recommend so that it won't fade and how do we best prepare the deck for the new coat of stain? Is a paint a better option???
