Best tinted deck sealer?

All deck stains are tinted. Clear deck sealers do not have tint. Transparent deck stains have a very light tint that blends into the natural grain of the wood while still offering minimal UV protection. Semi-transparent, semi-solid, and solid deck stains all have visible tint at varying degrees, ordered here from lightest to darkest. The darker the tinted deck sealer the better it protects against sun damage. The best-tinted deck sealers are penetrating deck stains that seal the wood while giving it a natural tint. The best semi-transparent penetrating deck stains are TWP, Armstrong Clark, and Restore-A-Deck.
