Looking for feedback and comparison on SW Woodscapes Solid vs. Maxum vs. BM 089 Acrylic Solid Stain for Cedar siding in the Chicago suburbs.
Thanks. I have a good size project looking for an extended warranty.

Seems like these are pretty much the same product. Are they all solid color stains?

What type of warranty are you looking for your applying stain to Cedar which will dry out as time passes, the stain should hold up just fine, the thing is it should be oil base, not latex, and you want to make sure there is no paint at all used. good luck

When Woodscapes first came out, was great but as usual SW messed with it, now its like water.

I would go with the one that will give you the best warranty. Back in the day oil satin was supreme but becoming a thing of the past.....tough to get here. VOC laws killed it.
