Professional Grade Semi-Transparent
Wood Stain And Sealer

This is a great product.
1. We bought it thru Home Depot and it was delivered to our door. The day we did the staining, we took the 2 5gallon cans into Home Depot to shake them up.
2. The cans have a ingenious spout system. You never have to ta…

I recently put some of the pecan stain color on my fence and it didn’t come out as expected. I emailed Customer Service and immediately was contacted by them. They went over and beyond to find a solution. He also sent samples because you can get d…

Just got through staining 2900 square-foot deck and probably the best stain product I’ve ever used . I will definitely purchase this in the future

I don’t leave many product reviews, but after using Ready Seal on our cedar deck today, I just have to assure anyone who has had a bad experience with deck stain that this product is the one to use. I applied the natural light oak color in direct …

This product is everything it advertises to be and more! Having never sealed a fence before, I asked a couple of fence contractors what they would recommend. Every time the answer was Ready Seal. This product lived up to its “goof proof” claim….

Looked at all the reviews and bought 3 gal of Cedar Ready Seal at Home Depot to use on our approx. 600 plus sq. ft cedar plank ceiling back porch. Also used it on the 4 large cedar posts on the porch. We have used many brands of stains over the …

WOW! Where has this product been all my life? It truly is good proof and the coverage is phenomenal! I can’t believe I’ve wasted all these years reapplying other brands. Thank you Sonya for telling me about this product! My yard has never looked b…

I never use anything else. We are staining a deck today with dark walnut. Ready Seal is the absolute best product on the market. I tell my clients, if you want another stain, you also need someone to apply it for you.

Replaced my deck in June 2018 using treated pine lumber. After three months I cleaned and sanded the deck surface and applied Ready Seal "Pecan" semi transparent stain. I used a pump sprayer to get between the boards and then a paint roller to fin…

I just stained my cabin with Ready Seal Golden Pine by myself from setup to cleanup in 4 hours what a fantastic product. When you say goof proof that is exactly what it is , temperatures was mid 30s to mid 40s it flowed perfectly no runs clean up …

We went with Ready Seal in the redwood color, the fact that we can reapply with no sanding or stripping was the biggest selling point. Also, the ease of application and the beautiful color provided us with amazing results. I can’t recommend Ready …

This is an amazing product!
I just did the inside of my fence since the sides facing out still look good and this is the first time in 3 years.
I did the top quarter two weeks before by hand so I wouldn’t get overspray on my neighbors house’s an…

I followed your recommended steps for surface preparation of old deck with residual product. After stripping, neutralizing, brightening, and sanding i was able to achieve results i would have never imagined. Your product is excellent! I will highl…

Workability is great, easy to spray… Ready Seal has an average spread rate with a heavy spraying application at about 100-125 sq. ft per gallon. Penetration is the high point I think, with a massive absorption rating… Ready Seal has deeper pen…

I’ve been in the deck restoration business over 17 years, and for 14 now have been using Ready Seal. It truly is a breeze to work with, has a very low odor, and is easy to clean up. The color palette is great and my customers always love the final…

I have a new deck that was allowed to cure (turn gray) for one year. This is a large deck (over 700 foot) and I used Ready/Seal in natural cedar. I am so pleased with this product.
It is so forgiving…no lap marks, no marks where I stopped and r…

High precipitation Idaho mountain home: Recently did my yearly touch ups on our decking railings which we treated with Ready Seal using a sprayer and brush before installing them all brand new 2 summers ago. We wanted our railings to have a more h…

This may possibly be the first product that I have ever left a review for. About 5 years ago I built a picnic table beside our pond. I somehow found readyseal in either lowes or HD (that was the last time I found it in a store). I used dark walnut…

I built a new deck 3 years ago, and then stained it 2 years ago using a big boxes & “premium” and most expensive oil based stain, followed all the instructions. When it went on it seemed a little thick, and wasn’t absorbing consistently. Sure eno…

I was told by a friend that Ready Seal is the absolute best product to use when staining and that it was 'self leveling'. I tried it and will never use another product for staining. I have a lot of decking and prefer real wood to the resin stuff t…

We just applied Ready Seal mahogany stain to the decks of our lakeside cottage in Northern Ontario. The 3 year old decks decks are built from sienna brown pressure treated spruce. They were sun faded and very dry.
As advertised, the product is…

We used Ready Seal natural cedar color on our dock that probably hadn’t been touched in 10 years. My wife pressure washed it down we let it dry 2-3 days. We used rollers on it and
Everyone that sees it swears we replaced the wood!! It looks Grea…

This is beyond doubt the best stain ever! Easy to apply, no worry about blending if you spill a drop. Water just beads on top. I’ve used many different stains and this is by far my favorite!

This stuff is awesome. It spreads itself. And it’s true, there is no overlap marks showing and no back brushing. Just spread it on and it spreads to where it is needed. The easiest stain/sealer I have ever worked with. And you can walk on it in a…

The best stain ever. I will always use this product. I’m so happy with how my deck turned out. I used bear on my back deck and it was horrible after a couple months. I used ready seal Dark Walnut on my pool deck and it is truly goof proof and beau…

Amazing results on no knot cedar!
Wish I could attach pictures..My customers is shocked at how beautiful it is!

Just used Ready Seal (dark walnut) to stain our deck, i had never used your product but read about it online.
I must say this is the BEST stain i have ever used and my deck looks fabulous. I used a Deck Boss brush to apply and had my deck done i…

We have used this product on numerous projects. From our wedding backdrop walls and decor we built, to the porch swing my son and i just finished. Easy application, great results. I highly recommend this product for new builds to restoration proj…

I could go on for days about this product but the short and simple is…. Ready Seal may just be the best product ever invented.

We just completed a remodel on our 70 year old farmhouse and after using over 25 gallons of this stuff on my exter…

I started a fence project with Tho*****’s. I went back to the store for more and during the pandemic, they were out. I am so happy they were. I ordered Ready Seal online. I am extremely happy with it! I will never use another product and I warm ev…

I just finished my cabin with golden pine ready seal. Only took a hour and a half and it looks fantastic. This is a super product. I don't know why anyone would use anything else.

I just rebuilt my 30 year old deck. Previous rebuilds were coated with Thompson’s water seal, Cabot, and Behr deck stain. All of them quickly wore off and had no penetration. I tried Ready Seal on new deck boards. It sunk in deeply and applied eas…

Just finished sealing and staining our 16×30 deck with dark walnut. Went on easier than any other stain I’ve ever used. I tried spraying it, but didn’t care for the coverage. Probably my sprayers fault. So we went with a staining pad. Went on supe…

I absolutely love this stain. It is soooo easy to work with and it looks beautiful. I have been using sikkens for years and always had trouble with paw prints that just wouldn’t come off, even the following year. I used the pecan on yellow pine an…

I can’t even tell you how much I love this product! I live in a pretty tough climate and everything else I’ve tried has been a huge disappointment.
The color I chose is beautiful! The product applies easily and performs/protects fantastic.
Thank…

I have a cedar stained deck that I’ve been maintaining for 20 years. Without fail, every stain I’ve tried has had to be sanded off the next year, cleaned, then carefully brushed on yet again. Every year, I’d try a different brand, and they were al…

I recently cleaned and stained my 40 x 50 rough cut cedar shake home. I could not be more pleased with the way it turned out, it probably hadn’t been done in the last 20 years. I used the natural cedar color. It went on as advertised no drips and …

This is a great product because it truly works as advertised. Two years ago we paid big $ to have our deck stained because, after researching stains, I was scared that I would mess it up if I did it myself. This year after talking to a local pa…

Phenomenal customer support!!!
Called the company today to speak to technical support.  The person I spoke with spent almost an hour on the phone with me, patiently answering all my questions.  All I can say is WOW!!!! Companies that care about t…

I would recommend this product to anyone. The can says goof proof on it. You can’t mess this up.

I live in Canada and was looking for a store that sells their product. I called and Thomas was the most helpful person. Not only did he give me multiple store phone numbers, he helped me to find stores on the site which was super easy, I not good …

This is my 2nd review.

UT we ran out of time last season, and only …

I convinced one of my contractors that had been using CWF on his projects to give Ready Seal a try. He came back the next day and thanked me for the heads up on this product. My contractor applied Ready Seal to some Cabins, he commented that it wa…

“Easy application. Much easier than a water- or oil-based polyurethane. You can have absolutely no painting or finishing skills and use this without messing it up. It really is goof-proof.”

We recently pressure washed, sanded and cleaned the 4 decks we have around our pool (roughly 600 sq/ft) after approx. 17 years of use. We did our research and chose Ready Seal Pecan sealant/stain based on your website info and the recommendation f…

We stained an outdoor glider with Ready Seal Dark Walnut. I contacted Ready Seal by email to make sure I could use on outdoor furniture. They answered right away Yes it was great to use on outdoor furniture.
Our glider turned out beautiful., a ri…

I used Read Seal on my cedar fence 6 years ago. I am restraining my fence this year. Great product. Don't think I'd use anything else.

The product is beautiful. I was only given a 24 to 40 hour window for dry. It went on easy as advertised. It made it 26 hours before the rain started again. I was afraid it would blotch. It still looks beautiful. I look forward to using you produc…

Just finished staining my deck. I love this product! Easy to use and beautiful results!

I LOVE READY SEAL. FLORDIA SUN RAIN AND SALT CANT HURT MY DECK AND DOCK. IT IS FOOL PROOF

I just finished three weekends of staining decks, stairs, and a big lake dock – using 50 gallons in all. Ready Seal is incredible stuff. Easy to apply, levels out for an even finish even if you spray too much in one area. I had to use two coats ev…

I used Ready Seal last week on my walkway and I’m so pleased with the way it looks, the ease of applying your product and the beautiful look. I selected the Pecan and it’s awesome. Thank you for a great product. I can’t wait for my new deck to cur…

As a 60 year old widow, I was dreading refinishing my 555 sq ft, seriously neglected deck. I’d done some repairs and cleaned it in the 9 years I’ve owned my home but never managed to get it stained/resealed. I have a dog and both doors that access…

Wonderful product! You can’t go wrong using this product. Easy to apply and the end results looks amazing. Thank you for making a FANTASTIC PRODUCT!

This is by far the best stain I have ever used. I put in 2 new privacy fencing Redwood in front and with a neighbor. One neighbor wanted to stick with the good neighbor fence which was 6 yr old cedar fence. I power washed it used the Ready Seal…

I loved everything about this product. After extensive research of what stain to use I could not be happier. The price point, ease of application, color and minimal odor are what makes this product great to me. I will use ready seal for life.

I just finished staining my deck with Ready Seal. I LOVE it! I’ll definitely recommend this product.

I’ve used big box stores products in past on my deck. I went with an expensive stain last year and was not happy with results.
At a local store in Norman, Ok a friend was buying Ready Seal. He convinced me to try the Natural Cedar on my deck.
HO…

My deck is DONE! It’s 17 years old and been stripped and re-stained every 2-3 years. It’s always been the same routine-hire an unknown guy who power washes the deck and gets stuff all over the house walls and windows. Then for the stain. Apparentl…

I can't say enough wonderful things about this amazing stain! It literally took me the entire summer to strip, sand and prep our 5 year old deck that had approximately 5 coats of solid stain on it. Unfortunately, I had used a pressure washer tha…

I have purchased over 40 gallons of Ready Seal in Pecan to stain my 6′ high fence, and it was the best investment I’ve made on my home in recent years. It’s the most beautiful stain you will use and the application is sooo easy and smooth. I used …

Just stained our front porch. First we sanded it because we wanted to. Then applied Ready Seal which was so easy. It’s still trying but take a look. Almost 200 likes from our friends. So easy when applying. I have pictures if you want to see the b…

I can’t begin to sing enough praises about your beautiful stain. It’s everything you advertised. It went on smooth, no lap marks, repels water, and after drying, it looked amazing and I couldn’t be happier.
I did my research trying to find a …

All I can say is WOW!!!! I wish we would have used this product years ago because it would have saved us from lots of worry.
It is so easy to use and goes on perfectly! Cleanup is a breeze. We used a roller and did our entire 2 level deck in a da…

I have worked with paint finishes for over 35 years. For decks, there is no better product than this! I had a client with a Ipe deck, the process would take 6-8 hrs and after having tried 3-4 different products over the years none of them lasted l…

After researching and reading numerous reviews, I decided to go with Ready Seal and it is EVERYTHING it’s hyped up to be! We are super please with the results! We used the Natural/Light Oak on our seven year old fence. The results are nothing sho…

Please send pictures to info@readyseal.com.

Great product! I researched, a better term would be obsessed, over what paint or stain to use on my new yellow pine tongue & groove porch on my 100 year-old house. I ruled out paint pretty quickly. Didn’t want to deal with the possibility of peeli…

Oh my. I have no words. Last year we stained our beautiful new deck with Behr water based stain. Lasted less than three months and peeled. We had to power wash strip and sand. I found this product and the reviews were so encouraging. So I took …

OMG, this stuff is phenomenal!

My 950 sq ft deck is 25 yrs old. Yep, it’s big, multi-leveled and old, so I called in a contractor for a bid to replace it. After receiving the quote, I thought I might just try to get a few more years out of …

I purchased my home in October 2019 and it had a new pine deck. I wanted to let the pine dry for a year or two before staining; I researched and purchased the dark walnut in early 2021. After I pressure washed the deck in late spring it rained a l…

Product goes on easy with no issues whatsoever. My cedar fence looks outstanding. Very happy I found this product.

This product was sold to me and it worked wonderfully….Easy to apply and looks great on the new deck.

Just applied the natural stain on my new last year cedar board deck. I used a 5 ” deck paint brush with a handle screwed into the brush. Turned out great no overlaps!

I’m very happy with how the deck turned out using Ready Seal. Pecan is a beautiful color.
