I've been using Deckscapes for about three years now, and I love it. The semi-transparent stain is easy to apply and lasts a long time. I used to use Cuprinol when Sherwin carried it, I think it is no longer made or just replaced by the Deckscapes. I wouldn't be opposed to trying something different, maybe the Ready Seal, since that seems to be what everyone is talking about. How would I go about getting ahold of a few gallons to try? Any feedback is appreciated.
