I know it is expensive but I used it several years ago on my back steps which are out in the weather all the time and it's still holding good. I also use it on my picnic table. I put about 2 inches in a container and put the legs in it for about an hour each. No more rotting. Just a suggestion and I don't know much about this kind of stuff. Kathie

The Thompson's doesn't even seem to last through the summer. I buy the kind that protects and prevents the wood from aging. I want it to look natural and retain its properties. I know Thompson's is one of the less expensive sealants and I suppose that is why. Is Behr's really that good? On one fence I had, the builder told me to use roof oil. It was really cheap and did every bit as well as Thompsons. I have a lot of fence. I have been brushing it on for additional sealing. Any suggestions?? Thanks!!!
