Flood 1 gal. Honey Gold Transparent CWF-UV Exterior Wood Stain

This stuff is really great. It goes on without much prep and stays on. It really helps preserve the wood on our deck.

although water based, this goes on easy and cleanups a breeze. after curing it’s a very solid coating, no waxy parafin feel when walking on it.

This sealer/stain application is extremely smooth. The coverage was very good my table was very dry and it absorbed well and dried quickly. The clean up with soap and water was simple and cleaned up well. The only negative, was the packing for the shipment. The gallon can was laying on its side in the box with no plastic bag or any packing materials. I was lucky and my delivery was OK, no dents or leaks. I recommend this product to my friends.

Item was great but I had to go elsewhere for more cans as apparently I got the last one.

I purchased the stain to use on a new deck and several ramps into storage buildings in Northern Michigan. I currently live in Florida and have used this on my boat dock and other pressure treated wood products for years. It holds up pretty well in the Florida sun, requiring pressure washing, and re-treatment every 2 years to keep looking great! I use the stain pads with a 4 foot paint pole to apply it to the wood. Then follow up with a 4 inch brush to spread out any ponded stain. It looks good and was easy to apply. I would definitely use it again; much better than Thomson’s water seal and efficacy and appearance!.

Flood makes a great product at a great value. Unfortunately, Amazon shipping sucks. I ordered 2 cans of stain and both cans were crushed in shipping. NO PROTECTION what-so-ever. Shipped in a plastic bag inside a single layer box!! NO padding AT ALL! I have not attempted to even open either can. I will have to puncture the cans and find a secondary container to pour contents into! I know now why the stars are heavy on the 1's! Do not purchase.

This goes on so easy. I used a sponge to do the deck floor. Just dip in a 5 gallon pail and go to it. Get to one side and then go back immediately for a second coat. On new deck boards it gives a nice rich golden tone. Shed water well. Water clean up makes the whole job easy. I will see how it holds up after a WNC mountain winter. I am very happy with this product, price and quality.

It goes on nice and the color lasts a long time. What I don’t like is that I can’t get the deck clean from dirt. It leaves stains and a cleaning with a lot of pressure using a mop is needed. And still faint mud and dirt stains remain. I liked it when i could just hose it all off completely
