Ok guys, started the staining process this wknd. Ended up buying the cabot suv w/ 24 protection. So far I love the natural color, just a slight tint and very easy application. Cons. Reports rated the cabot deck stain #1, but it wasn't the particular line I bought. It was the standard "deck stain". Oooppss. Well, we'll see but so far I am very satisfied. Rained on it last night and it beaded up well. Anyone else have any thing to say about using this brand? Wish it luck.
