Exterior Wood Siloxane Odorless Spray-On Application Waterproofer, Waterproof Wood Sealer, Safe for Plants, Pets, and People, 1 Gallon

Our deck gets pretty cruddy where we live, but each Spring we power wash it and treat it with this sealant. It does a great job protecting the wood for a year with it exposed to all the elements, it has definitely extended the life of our deck without a doubt. I really appreciate that it's safe to use around plants, people, pets. (We of course to not expose them to this) It's easy to combine with with water for quick use, and it does dry quickly.

Liked the safe for pets people and animal claim. (not good for laying cats; no problem on my end) Tried using a 2 gal sprayer, but spray too course; way too much waste; needed fine sprayer for it. Switched to brush, worked great. but a (mini) roller would be fine. Dble/triple coated especially ends on redwood. Then assembled small platform ensuring all the wood got coated. No bad smell. wood handles water fine.

I used this on my wood fence and deck after cleaning both thoroughly. This went on easily after pouring it in the sprayer. I will be using this again.

This review is temporary, but for now it’s 4 I went around perimeter 2 times with a brush where I could not spray and applied very liberal, then proceeded to spray coat 1 let it dry for 30-40 min then applied 2nd coat and let it dry completely for 30hrs then it down poured and right now it looks like it is doing what it is supposed to my only concern is I have painted deck posts and painted stair skirt which were impossible to keep the product from making contact I was only able to wipe it off where I could walk safely and there is nothing stated if it will harm or damage painted surfaces other than that I’m pretty happy at the moment time will tell FYI: product will puddle during application if applied to heavy etc if you can’t reach those areas to brush or mop it did soak in or dry with no issue , smell not an issue even after shaking the bottles I had some minimal white solids come thru sprayer tip they did wipe away not sure what it was All good so far

Delivered promptly. This is the only product I have found that actually works with a garden sprayer. Great that it does not hurt plants. It smells and looks like watered down Elmers glue. It does, unfortunately, take 2 coats. Hut that is stated in product information. This product has made a dreaded yearly task so much easier. I gave it 4 stars only because of the price of neatly $25 a gallon. So far I've used 5 gallons and have to set aside for future use. Ill definitely buy more when I need it. Update: I changed my rating to 5 stars. After nearly a month and several heavy rains my deck and glider look great and water definitely beads up. I'm glad I found this product.

Returned item didn’t have a heavy smell but also did not work had to use an actual chemical sealant this might work for side but outside it sealed nothing. Not waterproof nor does it add a protective coat for the wood. Thank goodness I tried it on scrap first. Very disappointed

Sprayed it on with a Hudson pump sprayer and wiped the heavy drips with a brush, if any. Soaks in quickly and seals well. Got a bit of overspray on my trex deck and I can see where the water beads off a bit more. Hit it with the pressure washer to see if it would sheet off and it sure didn’t. It’s wearing down on the deck (as you’d hope over polymer) but is holding up well with my pool furniture that sits outside in the rain. I’ll likely reapply in a few months just to maintain. Took about 10 minutes to do a whole set of couch, two seats, and a table all the way around.

I am sensitive to VOCs and was happy there weren't any I could smell while I applied it. I only got 1/4 of the deck done in the time I had a few days ago, which ended up showing this morning after the rainstorm how great it performed - the wood that I treated is clearly more dry than untreated. I'm eager to complete the project, will need to buy a 2nd container of sealant as I didn't add the railings into my original calculation (and I wasn't sure it would truly be low-to-zero VOC so I didn't want to over-supply myself). I used a large natural sponge (from art supply bin) to apply it which worked great as I expected to allow me to control how much liquid was going on, also allowed me to drip liquid into tight spaces.

So far the water is repelling well but I could have got a similar product for waaaay cheaper.. do your research, ppl
