Benjamin Moore ARBORCOAT Stain, Semi Transparent
A premium quality waterborne alkyd/ acrylic semi transparent stain formulated to penetrate, protect, and beautify wood siding, decks, fences or furniture. Its semi transparent color allows the grain pattern and texture of the wood to show through. Generally, one coat of stain is sufficient on properly prepared substrates. A second coat of stain may be necessary on some surfaces to achieve desired color and/or uniformity. It may be applied to new, weathered or to previously stained wood.
Residential or commercial applications where a premium quality finish is desired. For exterior use on wood decking, fencing, siding, shakes, and furniture.

Application: Prior to finishing, ensure having enough stain to complete an entire section. Stir thoroughly before and occasionally during use. Stain can be applied by brush, roller, pad applicator or by spray. If the product is applied using a roller or sprayer, it is recommended to back-brush the stain into the wood with the direction of the natural grain. Apply as received in the container. Apply 1 or 2 coats Arborcoat® Waterborne Exterior Stain. A second coat provides optimal performance and uniformity. Wait for the first coat to dry for a minimum of 4 hours before applying the second coat. Please note that multiple coats will affect the opacity of the final finish and obscure more of the natural color of the wood. Multiple coats may also result with the finish having a slight sheen. This sheen will slowly decrease with normal weathering.
