For the first time ever, Behr is announcing a 2023 Exterior Wood Stain Color of the Year: Cordovan Brown. Just in time for Spring—Cordovan Brown is a rich, satisfying finish for a sophisticated and timeless outdoor appeal.  The hue pairs well with Behr’s 2023 Paint Color of the Year, Blank Canvas, a warm and welcoming white with limitless possibilities to transform any vision into a reality. This dark wood stain color can create a dramatic look and complements a wide range of architectural styles from traditional to modern.

BEHR® Exterior Wood Stains can be easy to apply and provide a renewed look to exterior wood surfaces. Apply the color to decks, fences, railings, trim and other exterior wood structures for a beautiful look. The natural finish can seal out the elements, and sun’s harmful UV rays.
