Yuck, oil-based anything is no fun. At least it turned out looking fabulous! :)
What brand of stain did you use? I heard Penofin and Sikkens are good, they don't have parafin in them. They're supposed to last up to 5 years, so at least you don't have to go through the pain every 5 years. I have a fence I want to stain, I'm waiting until August though, it'll take that long for the wood to dry out.
WOW, that thing looks BRAND NEW! Fantastic work! Who says you need a man?! You ladies make a lot of the men I know looks like HACKS!
I have no knowledge of stain. However, it looks preeeeedy!
thanks all! nothing like a little extra pat on the back to make you feel good about your work
derek i used cabot semi-transparent oil based stain tinted to "mission brown"...i dont believe it has parrafin but is linseed oil based...i would definitely recommend this product as I couldnt be happier with the results
heather thanks! we do try to non-hackish work as freqently as possible ;)
