Clear, durable finish for redwood?

I have two (shop-built using Norm's plan) redwood adirondack chairs
and a small knee-high redwood table and these are kept outdoors on the
deck. In winter, I bring them in, tighten any loose bolts, sand, and
coat with Flood's product (it is called CW? or some three letters I
can not recall). This darkens the wood and protects it for up to two
years. Not as durable as paint, but it never peels and very easy to
apply. The label says it dries in 48 hours--I say give it a week of
drying for the stickiness to go away. Sanding removes the gray color
and the finish almost makes the redwood look new again. The furniture
is about 15 years old, still sturdy and looking very good.
Cool! Thanks!
