Suggestions On Porch Floor

Ok, Sun porch floor newly install or will be soon. 1x4 t&g fir (lumber yards call it porch flooring) 3 seasons room here in Chicago area. I use Sikkens on my decks now. HO wants a stained look (semi transparent) its gonna be rained on in the summer months, screens only. Will it get totally wet every time, no. Winter will have glass inserts.

I did explain to them it is going to be a maintenance item from here on out. Good customer all ready have the job not an issue. Just thought I would throw it out there and see if any one has other products they've used on similar projects.

Sq ft approx. 400

Does sikkens come in semi? I'd stick with that.

I use Sikkens Cetrol on my decks that I do. I only decks for people I know. I don't take on any new ones. Seems like the weather always bites me in the ass when it comes to the day i want to do the floor.
