Answer This Question

A:  Hi Kathleen, thank you for your question. You do not need to sand the porch before applying another coat of the stain. However, the surface should be sound, clean, and dry. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

    A:  Hi Marty, thank you for your question. As it turns out, our All-In-One Wood Cleaner not only cleans the wood, but also helps prepare the surface for the best results. The cleaner opens up the wood pores to promote adhesion and help with a uniform finish. Please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions. -Lina

          Am hooked on Behr but last time we used another brand on our deck because my husband's friend recommended it but here we are, less than 2 years later, repainting. Is thinner than regular Behr paint but covered beautifully and easily and looks great.

              Extremely Disappointed
              Regret buying this because there's nothing "natural" looking about it. Applied 2 coats to sanded deck boards, and it is a deep, almost neon orange color. Will now have to redo this project, and will have a hard time trusting other Behr stain color samples.

              Hi Paul, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the Cedar Naturaltone color of the Semi-Transparent Wood Stain did not turn out as expected. I can understand your disappointment. You have the option of using a Solid Color over the Semi-Transparent Stain in a new color. However, this won't show any of the wood grain. You can also remove the stain, clean the surface with the All-In-One Wood Cleaner, and apply another two coats in different color. We appreciate your feedback and would like a chance to help. Please reach out to us directly; our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Giovanna Behr
                Not bad but more orange than expected
                As many reviews have said, the color (Cedar Naturaltone semi-transparent) had more of an orange tone than expected. I used it on our cedar patio furniture after sanding it down with 80 grit to remove the year of weathering. It went on pretty easily with a roller, touched up the edges and hard to reach area with a brush. I did not apply a second coat since it was already darker than I expected - hiding some of the grain and knots. Overall, I’ll use the product again but swap colors.

                  Dried very uneven. Some places dark, other areas light. Especially in areas where you had to cut in using a brush. We used foam applicator, foam roller, regular roller, brush, and foam brush nothing worked. I had used this product several years ago, and it worked very well. Needless to say I am very disappointed.

                  Hello, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the uneven finish. This is not typical, and I can understand your disappointment. You can apply another coat to even out the finish, but keep in mind that this will make the finish more opaque. We appreciate your feedback, and if you need further assistance, please reach out to us directly. Our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Giovanna Behr
                    I didn't like how the can put at the very bottom "Two coats required" in bold. Like they are hiding that. That should have been at the top of the list. And you have to use their special cleaner, and pressure wash, and sand..., and use two coats... In order to get this 6 years life. I'm beginning to think it's not so much the brand of stain as it is the prep work to get good results.

                      Orange
                      We bought this because it says natural tone thinking it would look more like a natural wood color. I was skeptical when we opened the can and it looked orange but we decided to trust the process. Now my whole deck is orange and we will have to buy a different color and start all over. Not to mention the money we just wasted.

                        Orangey yellow
                        There is nothing cedar tone about this stain. It’s orange. This has happened before with a different brand. I thought Behr would be the correct color.

                          Just wasted $50 on this paint. It looks orange all the way. Now I gotta go and pick another color and repaint. It sure won't be Behr!

                          Hi Castmoses, thanks for your review. I'm sorry to hear the color didn't turn out how you expected. To fix this, I recommend removing the stain, cleaning the surface with our All-In-One Wood Cleaner, and applying two new coats of stain in a new color. Keep in mind that the color of your wood will affect how the color turns out since this is a semi-transparent finish. Customer satisfaction is very important to us, so feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team directly for further assistance. They are always happy to help. Enjoy the rest of your day. -Christina Behr

                            The staff member who helped me was very helpful. However, the Behr stain I bought for my deck (Natural Cedar, semi-transparent) dries to an ugly orange color. I returned 4 of the 6 gallons I bought (I lost about $100) and went with stain I have used in the past and like –– Ready Seal. Too bad Home Depot doesn’t sell Ready Seal.
