If no previous stain or finish has been applied or it has worn away, you'll usually have a weathered wood surface that has aged and darkened in color. Rejuvenate and prepare your wood for coating with BEHR PREMIUM® All-in-One Wood Cleaner.
For Best Results:
Use BEHR PREMIUM® All-in-One Wood Cleaner to remove stains caused by mold and mildew, while also restoring the wood's natural color.
Once the surface has completely dried, coat with a BEHR Stain or Finished product.
