Thanks. Do you remember the month it appeared?

July 2006. Here's a quick highlight.

Quoting from that article:

For homeowners interested in having the most natural look, CR deemed
the clear Olympic WaterGuard 55560, a latex that cleans up with water,
as the best and only choice.

Does anyone know if this product is still available, and if so, where?
I can't find it at the local Lowes, and
http://www.ppg.com/ppgaf/olympic/ext.../overview.html doesn't
list it by this name.

I saw this problem the last time CR looked at deck treaments a few
years back. All the highly rated finishes had been replaced, or
reformulated, in the 3 years it took CR to do the real-life testing.
