I’m a renovation contractor that builds a lot of decks and I’ve been having the worst results trying to find a product to seal/stain cedar. It turns grey quite fast so most clients want it sealed and or stained. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Cedar is difficult, especially on a deck. The stain needs to be UV resistant and trafficable. It needs to put up with things like driving rain and snow accumulation, as well as long hot days. Anything you use will need re-applying regularly. At worst, every year. At best, every three to four years.

    I like Sansin Dec

    It’s a two coat, high quality finish

      Thanks, I have never heard of this one. I will check it out. At least it’s available in my area.
