Our experience with this product is that it will last 3-5 years depending on many factors such as: whether the wood is new or old, smooth and properly sanded or rough, orientation to the sun (north and east will last longer), whether it is on a vertical or horizontal surface (vertical will last longer), what type of climate, whether it is protected by overhang or trees, etc. Like all stains and finishes, longevity is a function of preparation (50%) and orientation (25%) and environment (25%).Note: using the Caspian Clear will not block UV as well as the other colors. It's the pigments that protect against the sun.
