Oh my. I have no words. Last year we stained our beautiful new deck with Behr water based stain. Lasted less than three months and peeled. We had to power wash strip and sand. I found this product and the reviews were so encouraging. So I took the plunge. The stain is AMAZING. Easy to apply, good proof, amazing color. I had to drive to three paint stores to find gallons but it was so worth it. Five 🌟
