A good product but the can's label is terrible

2 years ago
Thanks to the person who let us know in these reviews that one must shake the can -vigorously and repeatedly - to get the pigment to be distributed in the stain. My first coat was weak and blotchy...and the second coat - after two vigorous shakings - came out beautifully....even and covered uniformly. This information must be included on the directions on the can!!! The other major weakness of the label on the can is that there is not a single word on there about how to clean up brushes, etc. Yes, it is "Oil-latex" but you shouldn't have to guess that it is the latex part that is operative when cleaning up...using warm water and soap. A user should not have to go to the Behr website in order to find out how to clean up. I love Behr products and this one is a winner but Behr customer support is badly lacking in providing critically important information on the product's label. Behr - please do better!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Color not what I want

2 years ago
I would like a bit more of a reddish-brown color and would like to know if I could mix some brown latex stain with the Behr Oil-Latex stain or possibly mix in some brown oil stain which I have some leftover. Behr seems to be the only company making the Oil-Latex stain so I cannot find this question answered anywhere.

Great coverage and very long lasting

3 years ago
I used Behr Oil-Latex Redwood stain 6 years ago on my deck, and it looked great. The deck is about 12x30 ft, and two gallons covered two coats perfectly. At about 4 to 5 years, the high foot traffic areas showed some peeling, but nothing that really needed it until this year. This year, I reapplied two coats, which went on quite nicely. I expect a good 5+ years out of it, with good wood protection. I love this stuff! First coat is very good coverage, and the second coat catches anything I missed. I also like that it dries fairly quickly, in an hour or so, at around 70F, and that it is easy to wash up with soap and water.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great Color

6 years ago
When I first got the stain I stirred it and the color was barely there. Yesterday a friend told me to shake the can. The instructions say to use as is and stir occasionally. I shook the can for a minute and the color was perfect. Apparently the pigment adheres to the sides of the can. Now I rate the stain as excellent.

Yes, I recommend this product.

No color

6 years ago
I purchased this stain this morning and judging from what others have written I must have gotten a bad batch. I stirred the contents, but there was no sediment to stir. I expected my picnic table to look new again, but the color did not change. The brush remained practically clean. I think my can is lacking in pigment as the liquid is thin as water. I applied some to a clean piece of a 2X4 and it barely colored the wood.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Long lasting protection and beauty

7 years ago
I used this redwood stain for my shed and some wood planters on my patio. I love the finish it leaves as well as the durability. The application and clean up was easy with my rollers and brushes. It absorbed quicker than I thought it would leaving a beautiful rich color and protection from the elements. It's important to cover areas that you don't want a stain because this will leave a permanent stain on anything porous. One coat was all I needed but I keep an extra gallon for the future if touch ups are necessary. As accents, I used some of the stain to finish some wooden birdhouses I made. I get many compliments from my neighbors and they ask what brand and color stain I used.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great Finish & Long Lasting

7 years ago
I used Behr Redwood No. 9 Oil Latex stain on my redwood gate and a short redwood fence topper on one section of my block wall over a dozen years ago. I painted only my side of the fence topper which was put up by my neighbor who did not paint his side. The Behr stain outlasted the fence topper, which rotted out on the unpainted side. I removed it when my neighbor moved and used the rest of the original gallon of stain to touch up the redwood gate (which still looked good, but was a bit weather streaked) and now it looks brand new after all these years. Awesome Behr product!. Will be back for another gallon in about 12 years, or so.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Makes the wood look like new again

My barn was in awful shape when I bought my farm and the wood on it looked almost like it was in a fire. It was black and looked terrible. I bought his stain and transformed an ugly eye sore into an asset. I even used it on birdhouses that were ready for the trash can and made them look like new.

Great for our old scarred but solid deck

9 years ago
This is just what we needed to make our home look nice! We purchased an older home in need of many cosmetic fixes. One of the worst, most obvious problems was the UGLY deck. Being on a budget, we searched for solutions: The deck either needed extensive sanding and resurfacing OR this product. There are a lot of deep grooves and deep stains in the wood, not a smooth surface. I bought one can (with this price, it's easy to experiment) just to see what would happen. Cleaned the wood with a wire brush and the results are smashing. This red stain is very much like what they use on wood picnic tables. Not for everyone, quite reddish when dry, but what an improvement for our cottage-y place. So far, it's sticking, covering well with two coats, dries fast and easy to use. Quite happy here!

Yes, I recommend this product.
