I've used Sansin in the past with great success. I needed to restore my 11 year old deck this summer. Spray, clean, scrub, sand and stain. I used the Honey #40 stain over the period of three weeks using only a 1 1/2" width paintbrush. Yeah, a little picky, but one brush did it all. Washed it off between sessions.

Blending while doing first coat, and the second coat after a week delay was an ideal scenario - no issues. Having used other brands with carnauba wax in it was impossible to blend after 15 minutes saturation time, and impossible with a 2nd coat (outright didn't allow 2nd coat to penetrate). That's not a great user experience. Sansin stain - awesome user experience.

So easy to work with, the outcome is EXACTLY what I wanted, and I didn't even use all 3 gallons to do the deck with two coats. The fence will be done next year. Hoping to use the sprayer with the fence.

2 years down the road, how is the stain protecting now. Used it on a 53 foot dock last summer, but where the dogs ran - the wood was always wet and appeared wet from 50 feet away, like the water had sunk into the wood. Wondering if I should choose something else and recoat next summer????????????????????
