Recommended Uses:
Cabot Weathering Stain #6244 Silver Gray is a deep penetrating, oil-based stain that beautifies and protects exterior wood. This lightly pigmented stain will create an immediate natural silver gray “weathered” look while allowing the grain, texture and color variations within the wood to show through. This stain is water repellent and, when properly applied, will not crack, peel or blister. Weathering Stain is for use on exterior wood siding, shingles, shakes,
fences, log homes and roofs. It is especially effective on rough-sawn surfaces and excellent results are obtained on premium grade lumber such as cedar, fir, pine, cypress, spruce, redwood and plywood panel siding.
