Question 13

Does the tint of the stain make the wood look painted? I have weathered cedar pickets--some are very grey. About 25 years ago, when I applied boiled linseed oil to aged-grey pickets, it brought out the natural grains without a painted look. However, I am opposed to using a toxic product. I am trying to figure out if I should use the PolyWhey in a brownish color or the waterproofer; the challenge is I don't want a painted look, but I also want to revive the aged-grey pickets and restore some natural color. Any suggestions? View answer
