I put Olympic Maximum tinted waterproofing sealer on a new cedar fence
about 4-1/2 to 5 years ago. We also cleaned our deck and used the
same product on it. Until then we had been in the two year cycle of
using the plain old Olympic sealer on the deck. We sold the house but
we drove by it about a month ago and the fence still looked great.
Maximum isn't the Olympic stuff you buy in the five-quart can for
$17. We paid about $140 for five gallon cans but it looks like it is
worth it.
