Great coverage and very long lasting
The deck is about 12x30 ft, and two gallons covered two coats perfectly. Lasted 5 years. First coat is very good coverage, and the second coat catches anything I missed. Dries fairly quickly, and easy to wash up with soap and water.

    Initially the paint looks very thin, not like solid color. I need to applied twice, then the color holds pretty good. I attached a photo, which shows before and after painting of our wood gate. The color looks very bright under sunshine.

    Worked out pretty nice
    A little liquidy (not sure if we'd really want it to be thicker as it did do the job nicely). It worked out pretty good on the kids outdoor playset. Took 2 coats and around 1 1/2 gallons, we didn't do inside the covered play area as it would have made that area too dark. Spread pretty smooth with a brush. Left no streak marks. Affordable price couldn't beat that deal and Overall we are very happy with the stain.

    Hi Mark, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the stain was too thin. Our Wood Stain is designed to be a thin product. But it should still be easy to apply and should cover well. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance. Our customer care team is happy to help you! -Giovanna Behr

    Excellent Redwood Stain at a Reasonable Price
    Used this stain to renew the large sheds at our local church. Easy to apply, good coverage, perfect color match, and a great value. Some spots that were very dry needed a second application, but for the most part, one coat was all that was needed. To do all the sheds shown in the photos on all sides we used 7 gallons. Completed the entire job in about 2 hours with a six-person crew. Highly recommend this stain as an excellent, low-cost option.

      I had to paint my fence by hand. The paint is thin enough to be used in a sprayer. I had to do multiple coats.

      Great - Be Aware It Fades
      Have bought this several times and coat my deck with it every 3-4 years. It’s economical, gets the job done, and doesn’t require me to pick from 1000 custom shades that cost twice as much. Be aware that — at least in the Phoenix, AZ sun — it fades to a brick color, which I prefer, as that’s more natural-looking than the color shown on the can.

          Hello Jayames, thank you for your review. I’m so sorry our oil-latex stain was watery and didn’t cover well. This stain should have a water-like/liquid consistency. If it seems thinner than that, I recommend stirring the stain in the container for 5 minutes to see if it gets to the right consistency. If it doesn’t, it’s best to use a new container before recoating across the surface in a thin coat for better coverage. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team directly for further assistance. Our team is happy to help you! -Joni Behr
            Great Value
            Had a gallon can for 5 years in my garage; I opened the can stirred it, and to my surprise it was fine. Can’t beat the value and performance.

              Not a solid color. This is a transparent Stain that will not cover on the the first or second coat. Recommend paint if you are going over painted and scraped wood products.

              Hi Ricko - Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that this stain didn't turn out as expected. For a completely opaque finish, I recommend applying our Solid Color Waterproofing Wood Stain & Sealer on top which will dry to a more paint-like look. For further assistance with your project, please feel free to reach out to us directly. We'd be happy to help! - Sara Behr

                I put this on my deck, then realized the can says not to put it on horizontal surfaces that get foot traffic. However, so far, it looks great. I used 2 coats. First coat had light and dark areas which resolved with an additional coat. Nice color, easy application with a roller.

                Great for wooden swingset
                Used this product to paint a wooden swingset. The color was pink when I painted it on but a nice rust red once it dried. Amazing coverage over the old paint. Dried quickly and I only needed one coat. You can’t beat this price!

                  Just for a potting bench built out of pallet wood; so I bought cheapest thing on the shelf. Perfect! Covered well and looks great. Total win. Much better than expected for that price. A good value.
