My deck looks awful. I stained it a little over a year ago and much of the stain is gone already. From the looks of it, it was more of a thin paint than a stain because it didn't soak into the wood.
I'm planning on sanding the whole thing down and restaining.
So... What brands should I look for? What to avoid?
Deck is cedar and I'm located in Calgary, AB, Canada.
BTW... Is there a trick to removing BBQ grease from a wooden deck?
