Semi-transparent stains are pigmented finishes. The pigments provide color and some ultraviolet protection and greatly increase the durability of the finish.
Apply finishes the full length of only two or three boards at a time to avoid lap marks. Do not apply more stain than the cedar will absorb because the excess stain will appear as a shiny area on the surface. For extra protection against mildew, an annual or even semi-annual application of a water-repellent preservative formulated with a mildewcide may be effective. |
