Great website!
The siding on our 30 year old home has never been stained or painted. It is all Cypress wood that has now been cleaned, sanded and prepped to receive a stain. We live in Virginia Beach about 3-5 mile from the Atlantic Ocean and half of the house is exposed to sun 10-14 hours a day. We would like a semi-transparent stain. Which stain would last the longest without graying? would applying a surface protector like polyurethane or something else be beneficial?
Thanks, Chuck
Chuck, I would look at TWP stains. Never put a polyurethane on outside wood!
