What's on the market that's a great stain? I trust this group, more than I
trust advice from HD or Lowes. If I scat on over to Sherwin Williams or
Benny Moore, they of course are going to try to sell me their products.

I finally got my deck cleaned after 3 days of pressure washing & bleaching.
I had a lot of algae on it.

Some of the old stain, didn't come off, and I didn't want to pressure
_blast_ it. The old stain was a semi transparent oil.

I'm thinking about going solid stain. I stained my house with Benny Moore
solid latex, and real pleased with the results, even after 7 years.

Can I use latex stain on the deck? I'm hesitant to go a solid oil, because
oil doesn't contract/expand with the wood. So, I'm told anyways.

Recommendations truly appreciated.

Cabots is doing fine for me in Charleston SC.
