What type of stain is best for a fence?
The best type of stain for a fence is penetrating semi-transparent deck stains like TWP, Restore-A-Deck, and Armstrong Clark. Penetrating deck stains show the grain of the wood while protecting it against sun damage, moisture, and mildew. Penetrating deck stains are easier to apply to an upright fence because it soaks into the wood, making it easier to apply an even coat without drips.
