Cabot Semi-Transparent Deck & Siding Exterior Stain

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used the Cabot Semi Transparent Stain on our 30-year-old deck which had not been treated in many, many years and had weathered badly. We followed Cabot's online website instructions and had wonderful results! We sanded the old wood thoroughly and used the Cabot wood cleaner too and the wood grain came through nicely with the Semi Transparent. We had replaced the top railing caps with new treated wood and after drying for about six weeks the stain applied very well, and the color matched the old deck surfaces as well. We're very pleased with this Cabot product!
