Staining a Wood Fence
Why Should I Stain My Fence Rather Than Paint It?
Staining a wood fence is a great alternative to painting because exterior stain preserves and enhances the natural appearance of wood. While a translucent stain allows the wood’s grain and texture to show through, a solid stain shows just the wood’s texture and masks imperfections. If you want results that fall somewhere in the middle, try a semi-transparent or semi-solid stain. The color and opacity you choose depends on your preference and the condition of the wood.
