Armstrong-Clark's deck and siding wood stain makes use of conditioning oils that part from the drying oils in the formula. The nondrying oils penetrate into the wood and take the place of the wood's diminishing natural oils. This process revives and restores wood.
The drying oils stay on the wood surface and lock in the conditioning oils to produce a barrier that is dry to the touch. Armstrong's deck and siding wood stain contain vegetable oils in addition to transparent pigments, solvents, mildewcides and water repellents.
- Application can be done in direct sunlight and on hot days. If the first coat of stain penetrates within 30 minutes an additional coat may be applied for extra protection.
- Applies easily by roller, brush, garden sprayer or airless sprayer. During spraying - going back over with a brush or roller will help give a more even appearance. After 24 hours any remaining puddles or glossy spots can be removed using a dry rag.
- Older wood is reconditioned by deep penetrating nondrying oils.
- Drying oils lock in the conditioning oils while pigments and water repellents lock out moisture and UV damage.
- Armstrong wood stain is compliant with all environmental standards.
- Does not contain any offensive odors.
Coverage Area
Armstrong-Clark Deck and Siding Stain applies at 150-200 sq ft per gallon. Depending on wood porosity, actual coverage will vary.

Just leave untouched so it can properly weather.
We do not have a dealer there but we can ship to you. Best to apply with an exterior stain pad or brush for uniform application. 2-3 years is normal.
WHEN APPLYING THE AMBER COLOR WILL THE COLOR BE CONSISTENT ON A DECK WHEN ROLLED ON?
HOW MUCH OIL IS IN THIS STAIN?
MY DECK IS IN THE SUN MORE THAN 1/2 DAY- HOW LONG WILL YOUR STAIN LAST ON A PRESSURE TREATED PINE SURFACE?
Yes it is.
Thanks
12 months or less if opened. Unopened it could last many years.
It can be sprayed but always back brush for an even application right away. The Semi-solids are a penetrating stain and should not peel if applied correctly and the wood is prepped correctly.
can it be applied by an airless sprayer?
To change colors, it wold be best to strip and brighten the wood. The Woodland Brown is a reddish color with a hint of brown. In the semi-solids there is not a medium brown color. Oxford is a dark brown and Sequoia is a rich red/brown. We do have samples on the site for you to test colors. The link is in the main menu.
Just pull it up and pop the tab.
Yes, you will receive credit. This is How To Claim Sample Credit:
Enter your sample order number into the "Comment Area" during checkout. The sample credit will be issued after the order for the 5 gallon pail is placed. Typically the next business day and will post to your Credit card or Pay Pal account within 3-8 business days.
Leaves do not stick to stain while drying. You should be fine.
What will happen when they fall on my wet, newly applied AC stain? Am I better off waiting for spring? Thanks!
Semi-transparen t Cedar on pressure treated pine wood.
AC has trans oxides in it for UV protection from graying.
Armstrong is not flammable so you should have no issues.
Above in the drop down color choices where you add to cart, it gives the correct transparency with each color.
Amber is a semi-trans.
For example, would Cedar be transparent, Cedar Semi be semi-transparen t, and Amber a full semi-solid color?
What about Rustic Brown, Woodland Brown, and Oxford Brown?
Hello, you cannot apply the AC over a paint of a different brand without removing it first. In addition there is no need to add linseed oil. The AC will penetrate very deeply as long as the wood is prepped correctly.
Not in MD. You can get samples here:

Yes. Link is in menu bar above.
Yes you can mix them. Not sure what the ratio would be and this varies based on your wood type and age. Might want to get a few samples from our site and test the ratios to see what color you would want.

Yes that is fine.
a. Natural is very lightly tinted.
b. yes you can.
B) Can you mix the different tones of the transparent stain to achieve a different color?
Yes it would be!
New wood needs to season for 2-3 months. You also need to prep first with the Restore A Deck Kit that we sell before staining. Semi-transparen t will give a little better UV protection.
I assume that I need to stain the deck right away before winter?
Also, what is the difference between the transparent and semi transparent wrt protection? The deck will be in morning sun. What do you recommend?
Amber is a transparent color but with 3 times the amount of trans oxides to give it the Uv protection of a semi-transparen t. It is both really.
The order page choice is Semi-Trans Amber.
Are they the Same?
Woodland Brown is a reddish brown color. Color also varies on wood type and the age of the wood. We highly suggest testing samples our first.
Wait 3 months. Prep first with Restore A deck Kit. Stain with 1 coat of stain. Use a semi-trans or semi-solid color.
Thank you.
