Stained with Armstrong Clark semi-solid in Sequoia on Friday afternoon. Woke to a rain this morning (Monday) to find oil floating on top of the deck. Also noticed no beading of water as I thought would happen. I know there are non-drying oils in the mix so is this normal?

Thank you Beth. Daaa. Should have thought of that myself. There are tons of them, I hope it works but I am doubtful. Lots of taping ahead of me..

Balusters are patina'd copper sprayed with lacquer. Will the HD 80 strip the lacquer?

Been away on vacation. Signatures, Sorry in my haste I did not read all that I guess I should have. I am a retired contractor. This is my deck. Yes, the photos do show much more orange than can be seen with the eye. I must give huge Kudo's to Jake. After I posted here I decided to write to the Company & was just pleasantly surprised to receive a letter in return. Impressed now with not just their product but also the Customer Service. I am going to send for some samples & play around. Thank you for all the advise.

I am in a dilemma. Last year a custom mix was created using Cabot Australian Timber oil. Mix was 2:1 (2) Honey Teak/ (1) Jarrah brown. Great results, loved the color. It was put on a new deck. It did not last & was about to get some more, that was before I found out about the non-existance of the product. This was their old oil base. After reading all the rave reviews on Armstrong Clark, I am sold on their product. Probably use the semi T. Unfortunately not so much on their color choices. The deck floor is PT while the railings etc are cedar. I am not a fan of the yellow/orange color of some of the cedars. So when I looked at the cedar finish, all I saw was yellow/orange. I am in between because I don't want to go as dark as the brown but yet I don't want the orange either. I have put some photos of the deck showing the desired color we want. Can anyone advise me of a guess to what ratio to begin with?
