Best Stain for Outdoor Furniture?

To answer that question there are a couple of factors that comes into play. First of all, when you say Best stain for outdoor furniture we will assume that your definition of “best” is “the stain that requires the least amount of maintenance and is the most durable”. 

The factors are:

• Is your furniture fully exposed to sun and rain?

• What colour is your preference?

• Dining frequency?

If your furniture will be under cover and get minimal sun and rain we recommend Sadolin Clear Teak Oil due to its stunning colour.

If your furniture will be exposed to extreme sun and rain, we recommend Golden Care Teak Protector. Another candidate for Best stain for outdoor furniture in extreme conditions is Semco Teak Sealer.

To accomodate for requests when customers are after a specific colour we find that Sikkens Stains has the widest and most natural looking range. Also a really high quality product for extreme conditions.

Do you find yourself dining a lot and have a few food spills, or even red wine spills you should most definitely let us apply Golden Care Teak Shield.
