      Can I mix the Elite Mountain Cedar Woodland Oil Transparent Low VOC with the American Chestnut Semi-Transparent Stain? I am trying to customize the color. I know the transparency is different and am okay with unpredictable variation in that regard.

        Answer This Question

        COVERAGE: Approximately 250 to 350 sq. ft. (23 to 33 sq. meters) per gallon (3.78 Liters) depending on application technique, wood texture and porosity. Coverage figures do not include loss due to surface irregularities and porosity or material loss due to application method or mixing.

          How can this be called oil based when it's water clean up? Olympic used to be linseed oil in it with spirits clean up. I think you need to re-lable it water based.

          Answer This Question

          This product is an Acrylic/Oil stain. It will clean up with soap and water. It still does have oil in it that will have to be able to penetrate into the wood.

                  This stain looks great and went on easily. Clean up was very easy with just soapy water. We’ll see how things look in another year but so far, so good.

                  Excellent coverage and protection
                  Looks fantastic! This is not pure mountain cedar. I used 2 gal "Natural" with 1 gal "Mountain Cedar." My deck is about 800sq ft; I used 2.5 gal for the first coat and 1.5 gal for the second coat on clean dry only slightly weathered pressure treated wood. The color came out almost a bronze. The warer beads. Highly recommend!

                    Very disappointed. We stained our deck in August 2024. This is how it looks today. We used 7 gallons of stain.

                      Stain had been shaken just prior to use, but when I got to the bottom of the can, there was a very different color. This ruined what was left in the can as well as a small portion of my project.
