I don’t like the way it looks. It is more like a paint then stain.

Very pleased with the color, works perfectly for worn old wooden decks. Gave 4 stars because I don't know how it will wear vs what the can says.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used many different brands of deck paint on my decks. Behr products have outlasted every other brand.

      Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to review our DeckPlus Semi-Transparent Wood Stain. I'm sorry to hear about the peeling and mildew. To fix this, I recommend removing the loose coating and using a mildew-killing cleaner to remove the mildew. Then, clean with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner to open the pores of the wood and promote adhesion before applying two new coats of stain. Please keep in mind that periodic cleaning may be needed for areas prone to mildew/mold. I've also reached out to you via email to get more details about your project and assist further. Thanks again for reaching out, and I hope to hear from you soon! -Christina
        Great product!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently stripped our deck and decided to give this product a try. It was easy to apply and the finished product is exactly what I had been looking to accomplish. Very satisfied and would use this again on any future projects.

          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this to stain the board and batten on our house. It's been 7 years and the house looks as if it's been freshly stained. Would highly recommend this product!

              Effective Stain
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought and used this staying on our outdoor garden box. It went on well and provided a good protection on the wood.

                This stain isn’t even worthy of one star. You’re lucky if this stain last a year before flaking and coming off. If I did not have a big deck with lots of rails and boards I would change brands, but trying to match off the exact color isn’t easy. I have pressure washed and cleaned the porch before applying the stain and nothing makes this product hold any better. Many boards have been replaced on my deck and I cleaned the wood before applying the stain and less than a year later the deck needs restained again. For this price I would expect a better product.

                Hi there, thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that our Semi-Transparent Waterproofing Exterior Wood Stain is starting to peel. This is not typical, and I can understand your disappointment. To fix the issue, I'd recommend removing the stain by scraping, sanding, or power washing at a low level. Then clean the surface with the All-In-One Wood Cleaner and let it dry, then apply 2 coats of stain per the label directions. 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! -Ronald Behr
