Olympic Maximum 1 GallonSC-1078 Snowflake Solid Color Exterior Stain and Sealer in One

We bought our house 23 years ago when it was 9 years old and the cedar boards had not been restained. It was a sale on Olympic solid stain that got us to try it that first time and the house "drank" up gallons of stain on that first coat. But the second coat showed us the quality and durability of Olympic solid stains and the house was transformed into a new protected surface. We have not gone back to another product... our fences, decks, expanded house are all regularly protected with Olympic solid stain. We simply have no reason to do a trial with another product!

I have been using Olympic stains for many years. I usually buy the Maximum solid stain. The coverage is great, but I do have to do the deck again after a couple years. I am aware of this and still continue to use it. I assume since the deck has been stained so many times, it's almost like a paint at this point. No worries. Still love it!
