Wood Stain and Finishes Deck Defense ™

Exterior Deck Finish

Deck Defense has been reengineered with a new formula for better performance, longer life, and easier application. Although it is a totally waterborne product, it has penetrating properties like oil finishes, but unlike oil-based products, it hardens into a lattice, supporting and strengthening the natural cellulosic fibers to protect from the inside out - not just on the surface. Homeowners can feel secure in the knowledge that their investment is protected from the damaging effects of wind, sun and water.

Normal maintenance has also been made easier, as there will be no need to strip off the old Deck Defense prior to re-application, as it will not flake or peel when properly applied. Just clean the surface to remove any dirt or contaminants, allow the deck to fully dry, then apply your maintenance coat.
