What are the Different Types of Wood Deck Stains?
In this video, we’re going to cover what actually is a “Deck Stain”. We will compare the many different types of deck stain options available and what are the positives and negatives of each.
Deck stains are used to protect and preserve your exterior wood. They offer UV protection, water repellency, mold, and mildew resistance. And deck coatings come in many different types of opacity and bases. Deck staining can be a “chore” for residential homeowners and unfortunately walking into your local store may produce some of the worst options available. Not all deck stains are created equal and there is not a perfect stain type or brand that will outperform all the others.
