14 best bond wood deck sealers

Product description

One TIME Stain Quart Size, It's not just a Stain.....It's an Investment! Preservative, Protector & Stain all in One Fast & Easy Application Re-apply every 7 years. What to expect from One TIME, “Preservative, Protector & Stain all in One” ONE COAT APPLICATION – spread as far as it can go - more is not better. Estimated coverage of One TIME for newer wood (smooth wood with minimal cracks and crevices) is up to 300 sq. ft. per gallon. For older wood, coverage is estimated at up to 250 sq. ft. per gallon. Your wood is better protected from the elements of weather because One TIME is made up of 100% solids that cure into the wood and will not wash away like other products. One TIME has no water, no wax, no silicone, no oil and no VOC’s. One TIME cannot be mixed with other products. If you have previously applied another product on your wood, you need to completely and successfully remove it before applying One TIME. Failing to do so may inhibit the penetration and curing of One TIME, causing your wood to become tacky. Always test a small area before completion of project. You can remove any “feathered” areas in your wood with a light sanding after cleaning the wood and before applying One TIME. Mill glaze is present on NEW smooth cedar and restricts One TIME from working properly. Redwood needs to be weathered for 6 months before applying One TIME. *it is recommended to use a darker color on Cedar, Redwood and Exotic woods. NEW PRESSURE TREATED WOOD can have One TIME applied 2-4 weeks after installation. After applying One TIME, the wood may emit a whitish or yellowish substance usually from the knot areas. This is normal. Knots may be much lighter than the rest of the wood. One TIME does not cause overlap marks, run marks or drip marks. One TIME does not peel, flake, crack or chip. All exterior surfaces eventually get dirty. You may want to periodically clean your One TIME sealed wood with any mild cleaner or detergent.

• Rejuvenates the color of any wood surface
• Will not overlap, crack, flake or chip
• Ideal for DIYers and Professionals
• 7 Year Guarantee

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the warranty on this
Answer:	I don't believe there is any warranty. We applied it two years ago and the covered areas still look good. The section in direct Sun...needs to have it applied again.
Question:	How long can the product be stored once the container is opened
Answer:	We actually used some that we had stored in our garage that was left over from the last time we stained our siding and that was in the summer of 2012, 6 yrs ago. When we removed the lid, it looked like it had become a gel but my husband used a drill with a paint mixer/stirrer tool and it became liquefied again. We applied it to the siding without incident and the color matched the new 5 gallon containers we bought this summer .
Question:	I have 275 ft of fence plus a gate- what's the coverage with using a sprayer
Answer:	I’m in the process of staining my fence (I am using a different brand) with a semi-transparent stain. I have 187’ of fence at 5’ high including 2 gates. Applied with a roller and brush, I’m going to need around 13 gallons. My recommendation is rent a sprayer from Home Depot. You’ll save time and money as you’ll use less product and it will go much much faster.
Question:	we have a heavy dining set and i am worried about scratches after i stain, how does it hold up to heavy chairs moving back and forth
Answer:	I have a deck/patio furniture set, including a cast iron umbrella base. Lots of use over the last year with no evidence of scratches in the deck. The stain penetrates the wood rather than building a barrier so dragging stuff across the boards won't take it off provided the wood is properly prepared.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many squre feet does one gallon cover
Answer:	The stain is really good. I used in about 9 yrs ago so I don't remember if it had a strong odor or a residual odor. I used it on an outdoor deck however. I'm hoping to restain in a couple of weeks, so if you ask again later I may have a better answer for you.
Question:	What size container is this? 4lbs or 9 lbs
Answer:	I would say a little on the orange side. It looks good, though.
Question:	is this oil based or water based
Answer:	I am not sure I understand your question. You can purchase, from my experience, quarts - which would be about right for an $88 gallon container when broken down. This is great stuff and I can not speak highly enough about it. Only think I would advise up front is to go with a color that has more tint than the Natural. I have a 3,200+ sf deck that was originally finished in the Natural. When I had to reapply 8 years later I moved to the Cedar finish and am happy with the amount of fade the past couple of years. Will more than likely stay with the Cedar when it needs done six years from now. Hope that helps you out a bit!
Question:	Can it be sprayed on
Answer:	Did you shake it before you started ? I have not experienced your problem . I brush it on ,leave it in the sun,brush out all wet spots the next day,give it more sun until it can be worked with. Good luck.

Rainguard Water Sealers Wood Sealer

Protect, restore, and extend the life of your project with Rainguard Water Sealers Wood Sealer. Formulated to penetrate deep into the surface, Wood Sealer is a water-based silane/siloxane water repellent. It can be used on unpainted, interior or exterior, vertical or horizontal surfaces and dries clear with an invisible natural finish.

Surface Preparation:

Remove dust, dirt, and debris from the surface. Gently remove any stains with soap and water or use Rainguard Restore-N-Prep. Once the surface is clean, make sure to let it dry until it is “bone dry”. This will allow the sealer to absorb deep into the surface for maximum protection. Think of your surface as a sponge. A wet sponge will not be able to absorb as much as a dry sponge.

Use on the Following Vertical or Horizontal Surfaces:

Wood Deck (horizontal): Approx. 150-200 square feet per gallon depending on surface porosity

Wood Fence (vertical): Approx. 125-150 square feet per gallon depending on surface porosity

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work where i have a slow drip leaking from the joint of pvc pipe to my septic inlet
Answer:	Overkill. 3m5200 is a permanent adhesive, but won't stick well if the surface is wet. If it does stick it won't come off. I'd look into some asphalt patching compound
Question:	Will this stick to epdm rubber roof or dicor rv tape on an rv
Answer:	It should, provided you did not use a silicon based sealer on the RV roof. I have used it on my RV roof, with good results. This is the best caulk I have ever used.
Question:	If there is excess adhesive, can it be sanded once fully cured? 2.Once opened will the adhesive remaining in the tube last for a few days
Answer:	Yes, but in my judgment, it does not sand well. To cut off excess, an X-Acto knife works better for me. It has lasted a few days for me IF it is very carefully sealed up.
Question:	Is it paintable
Answer:	Yes it is paintable

Question:	how do you clean out the nozzle extension for the 3oz version? It comes with an adapter cone to screw into the tip, but it has no cap itself
Answer:	The product can be used for any area that will be in water. I have used it to secure drain ports on a boat. They are constantly in salt water and has not leaked. The rocks should be sealed and allowed to set before submerging in water.
Question:	is it for aluminum boats
Answer:	Yes it can
Question:	Can this be used to seal pool waterfall rocks, which will be underwater
Answer:	I'm not sure what JIM bits are. Do you mean JIS bits ? In any case, these appear to be the standard American bits.
Question:	Can this be used to attach a pool tile 1/2 in and 1/2 out of the water
Answer:	The 1/2” Craftsman impact driver comes with a 5/16” bit adapter. These are also 5/16 and will fit the adapter perfectly. I have both that driver and these bits 👍

User questions & answers

Question:	How effective is this compared to other wood preservative products--green/brown/copper stains--you have used for wood touching ground
Answer:	It is not as effective as tinted products. I apply it every year, and it seems to have extended the life of my 22-year-old cedar deck. It's not great, but I think that's the cost of using a clear product. The deck gets a lot of snow. And there is one area that never sees the sun. Those boards never get to dry completely, and 2 of them needed to be replaced after about 20 years. Those that do get some sun are still solid.
Question:	Can I use this to coat wooden clipboards to protect from liquids
Answer:	Thompsons Water Seal will protect anything made of wood. Just paint the TWS on with a brush and let dry for 24 hours and apply a second coat. Make sure you coat the edges really well also.
Question:	What is product sheen ? I want a matte / satin when dried. This is for cedar posts on a covered deck, doesn't see much sun or rain. Thanks
Answer:	Not too much sheen. Great product for our fence.
Question:	Is this appropriate for ground-contact Douglas Fir for kids sandbox/playset? Trying to avoid pressure-treated and the cost of redwood if possible

Question:	Why does this product say $22.25/G then under the description it says "Available in a gallon-size," but when you look at the picture it is a 1-gallon

User questions & answers

Question:	I bought A pole barn that has dozens of nail holes in the roof that were supposed to go in the rafters but didn't. Can I use 4200 to seal them
Answer:	This a marine and Rv’s sealer for vehicles that requires movement only, not for shower.
Question:	Will this work underwater and does it set up quickly
Answer:	Not if you reseal it (remove and clean the nipple and put a nail or bolt in the tube opening) stick it in a ziplock and put it in the refrigerator. Take it out before next use and let it come up to room temperature or it will be very thick and hard to dispense.
Question:	Can this sealant be used to fill in grout between tiles in the shower? Is it hot waterproof
Answer:	After being opened, even if you cap the nozzle with something like a wire nut, it will cure inside the nozzle, and within a two to three weeks the entire nozzle will turn to the solid form. Advise using it all up within three weeks or less. If the nozzle has plugged, take the nozzle off and from the screw on end, use a drill and drill bit to unplug. Depending on how thick it is applied, it will take 3 to 5 days to turn to solid form. The fast cure type takes about half the time to turn to a solid. This product is fabulous for RV roof sealing too. Comes in white, tan, black, and mohagany colors.
Question:	Will this product go bad if it isn't all used within 24 hours after removing the seal
Answer:	Yes it works well on just about every material. Works well with clean aluminum.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product non-blushing
Answer:	Hi Chuck, MAX MARINE GRADE EPOXY RESIN is good for laminating wood and fiberglassing. It is not meant for outdoor use as it will yellow and degrade over time as with any aromatic based epoxy resin. We will be soon releasing an aliphatic based resin which will provide direct sunlight performance as well as durability.
Question:	What is the temperature range that you can apply this product
Answer:	They make this—-MAX CLR A/B Epoxy Resin System 1.5 Gallon Kit, FDA Compliant, Food Safe 4 Direct Contact Coating—-for food contact surfaces...it’s 30-40 dollars more than the non-food safe stuff
Question:	would this product work as a single solution for laminating a wood arc as well as well as exterior fiberglassing
Answer:	Probably, but not sure it’s the best choice. How about the roof sealer you can get at any home improvement place. If you get 4200 I would not buy from same place I did. I think what I got may have been expired. It was pretty hard and no applicator tips on the tubes.
Question:	Will this work to seal a butcher block bar top that will be installed just above the water line of a chlorine pool in phoenix thats partially shaded
Answer:	4200 and 5200 is the best product on the market for below the waterline applications. Most boat builders use these product's. I believe full set takes 24 hours for the regular cure but they have a fast cure also.

Question:	I don't know if I am using this mop correctly
Answer:	I use the Bona Hardwood mop motion to apply. Just spray and mop. You don't need to use pressure. I mop the floors every other week so there is not much dirt build up. Don't use like you would do with water. Spray once then mop, spray again then mop.
Question:	What is the difference between this and the professional version
Answer:	According to the Bona website: The Professional Series cleaners were originally created for the janitorial community and have a stronger degreaser in them than our regular cleaners. However, the Professional Series is safe and easy to use in homes as well. Both our regular consumer cleaners and our Professional Series cleaners are pH balanced and leave no dulling or sticky residue. They are also GREENGUARD GOLD Certified for indoor air quality.
Question:	What is a good mop to use with this cleaner to avoid streaks
Answer:	I've been using a Turbo Mop for a while and haven't had any issues with streaking. It could also have to do with the amount of cleaner you're using, sometimes less is more.
Question:	does it work on laminate floors
Answer:	Bona has a different cleaner that is for laminate floors. I think I would get that instead.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many square feet will a pint of the cold weather formula cover
Answer:	Depends on too many variables to really give a straight answer... They size them based on the resin bottle without the volume of the hardener, and there are no VOCs whatsoever. The "gallon" size will actually yield 1.5 gallons of liquid once mixed with the hardener. That's quite a bit of coverage as is since this stuff is very thin and easily spread on and absorbed, but if you're using it in a penetrating application you could easily cut that 1.5 gallons 1:1 with denatured Alcohol or Xylene or any other solvent which then would yield more epoxy than I have a use for. Thinning my penetrating epoxy out I'd guess I've covered 15-20 square feet of high void low quality OSB 3-4 coats, and injected some into holes I drilled into the OSB, and I'm about halfway through a 1/2 gallon order. I have 31' x 7.5' of OSB and if I were planning to coat and seal the entire thing I would buy the gallon size and another gallon of denatured alcohol.
Question:	can I use this to fill cracked wood for turning on a lathe? What is the cure time? how to finish the turning
Answer:	I did end up diluting with denatured alcohol per instructions (about half per instructions) and it really stretched the coverage and worked very well. I would buy it again. I covered 80 sq feet with product to spare. I applied it to marine grade plywood and some old particle board flooring from a 1989 Airstream floor and it worked very well. I still have some product left. Good stuff.
Question:	what is the coverage of the gallon size
Answer:	Yes, when properly mixed and cured, MAX MARINE GRADE is non-blushing.
Question:	what is sq. ft. of coverage for a quart
Answer:	I'm not where I can look and see exactly but it's really best if you use it in the range of the 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 75 80 degrees Fahrenheit you know that's just a good basis that I go on the package will tell you in probably the description will also tell you what the temperature range should be for application.

Versatile TotalBoat Penetrating Epoxy lets you do more—for less!

If you're dealing with rotted wood on a boat, home, or RV, you know that sometimes removing and replacing rotted wood isn't practical or even possible. The ideal solution is to use an epoxy that penetrates deeply into the wood and stops the rot from getting worse. Some other low-viscosity wood rot treatments appear to penetrate, but most of it actually evaporates, leaving only a small percentage of epoxy, making them unsuitable for sealing new wood—and they smell terrible, with noxious fumes. TotalBoat Penetrating Epoxy has an easy-to-use, 2-part, low-viscosity formula that penetrates deeply to stop active rot, bonding the surrounding wood to the rotten wood to solidify it. It also seals, preserves, & protects hard and soft woods from mold, mildew, and salt damage. Its slower cure rate gives the epoxy time to saturate deeply. All without the odor & fumes of other epoxies.

Choose Regular or Cold Weather Penetrating Epoxy Formulas

You can prevent rot, but you can't control the weather, so our clear penetrating epoxy sealer comes in two formulas that ensure success in a range of temperatures. Regular Formula: 65-90°F and Cold Weather Formula: 40-65°F. Our handy kits come in four sizes, so you buy just what you need, reduce waste, and save money.

It all started simply enough. As boaters, we wanted better stuff for our own boats.

Even our favorite products, the ones we'd come to rely on, had room for improvement. It'd be nice if they could hold up longer, cure faster, coat better, apply easier, and—since we all know boat ownership creates a mini maelstrom in your pocket—cost less. So we took everything we knew from 35 years of customer feedback, combined that with our own boating knowledge, and after a few years of rigorous R&D, TotalBoat was born. Launched, rather. By boaters, for boaters.

Need help? Our TotalBoat Tech Team is a bunch of boat owners who really know their stuff. So whether you're trying to figure out what to buy or what's the best solution for your particular project, they have years of hands-on training and experience—and a passion to help you succeed.
