Manufacturer Description: ReadySeal wood stain and sealer contains all the essential elements of a quality coating for exterior wood projects. Ease of application was in mind throughout the formulation of ReadySeal to ensure all consumers a hassle-free application, saving time for the contractor and promising a Goof-Proof process for homeowners.
Ready Seal is very easy to apply and that is the only good quality that it has. The stain does not dry and tracks on carpet and rubs off on clothes. Lost all color in 9-12 months. Very poor UV resistance as it was gone in less than a year.
Is a second coat needed so soon just being nearly 3 months of staining?
Ken, on the initial application, 2 coats were applied. The weathering photos show how it ended up 14 months later.
Been using for 30 years with atleast 3 years of color lasting with many 5 years on board on board cedar. All is in 12% or less total moisture when applying and good coverage.
Bought pecan semi-transparent–put on fence 2 yrs ago-took( 4-5 gallon cans at $180 ea) –thought it looked faded and dried out so put on another coat. I had some left over and it went on fine ,had to buy 2 more and its a completely different color,I thought it would fade as it always goes on darker-but now I have half my fence that is way darker,like walnut dark,looks ridiculous.
