Deck Guy 14 Report post Posted September 15, 2006 Simple question, no lectures please (because I probably agree with you). I just am looking for a good, and if possible, easy to apply clear sealer, or something with a little amber or honey to it. Share your experiences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Tom DeFrancesco 23 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 I am bringing this thread back up front because i have the same question. Customer does not want stain, just sealer. Any suggestions on what to use other than Thompson's or is that brand ok ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 seymore 90 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 I sell a good Gray Away Clear Tom just as good as the pigmented stains but no pigment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 MMI Enterprises 289 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Clear as in shiny top coated modified alklyd, or waterbased acrylic... or just plain old kerosene/mineral oil based/penetrating parafinnic oil/preservative blend?....lol :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Would this be too much pigment? Look at the rails on the left. The rail on th right and steps were done five minutes before this pic was taken and sealer hasn't fully penetrated yet. This deck was stained a year ago and still isn't gray. There is no clear that will hold up for more than 6 months. You need a little bit of UV protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds conflicted in a nuclear confused way :) p.s. j/k..yer really saying that you almost went clear but that some pigment is there in bottom picture?...looks almost clear, wet,or very slightly pigmented.. I really like that look as does alot of folks out this way..Please tell us the color or mix you used for that Ken...Oh and where is that powerpoint you said I could get off you?

0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 Oops, sorry about that Kevin. Everytime I go to PPI mails there are 300 customer inquiries I get into then I get burned out and forget why I originally signed in. Shooting me an email is the best way to remind me, then i'll reply and forward it to you. pressurepros mail(dot)com Its Wood Tux Brown Sugar diluted 50% with min spirits.

0 James 624 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 I use Ready Seal clear all the time. Pt wood doesn't turn grey for awhile because of the copper in the treatment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
