Hello ,

I have used Thompsons water seal on my cedar deck for the past 6 or so
years...I use the "Natural" stuff which preserves the wood and keeps the
wood grain looking bright etc... My first year I used the stuff I got a jug
that had been frozen and as a result the sealer didn"t dry so had to scrub
it all off and start again......I got a few new cans and it went great... I
could see the wood grain coming out and looking fresh and bright as I put
the stuff on..
This year I bought these plastic jugs of Thompsons water seal (It
usually comes in tins)...I figured that they just changed their
packaging...it says its the same stuff on the jug, but when putting this
stuff on it dosen't go on like the oil which brings out the wood grain..it
is rather like a yellow milky substance that does nothing for the wood
grain...I ony did a few sq feet and shut it down as I don"t want to have to
scrub the entire deck like I had to years ago...
Has anyone used this product that would care to comment? Thanks...Jim
