Default Solsr Lux for exterio use

Chris wrote:

Anybody have experience using solar lux on exterior projects? I know
someone who had an ipe bench made and asked for a solar lux stain because
they like the color. They also asked that no sealer coat be applied as
they believed it would be easier to restain in the future if needed. Today
while raining they tried to install the bench and got stain all over their
hands, even though it was dry when inside. Any ideas on what will be the
best course of action now?
It sounds like it needed a sealer, but now when it dries if it's smudged
then what would be the easiest approach? Ipe would not be to easy to soak
stain into in the 1st place as it's so oily & dense.


Would think that SolarLux would fade pretty quickly. Even inside on my
workbench, the parts that are exposed to sunlight have faded quite a bit in
not a whole lot of years.
