Is Behr vs Cabot deck stain best?
No question. Consumer reports has 3 year data for the Cabot stain and it was rated at greater than 80 percent (very good). There is only one year data for the Behr stain. There are many complaints about the Behr stain, and many contractors recommend the Cabot stain over Behr. I just used Cabot stain and in some areas I applied two coats to get the look it needed to blend the color. Both the one coat and two coat areas are GLOSSY and TACKY. This does not look good. I tried to rub it with mineral spirits, but that did not help. I have found that in the past, this was a better stain, but to reduce VOCs, they change the product. IT DOES NOT WORK WELL. I called Cabot to complain and all they can say is that I must of applied it to heavy. If I apply it any lighter, it just wont have any color to it. I used 9202 ceder. The tacky surface did not improve after a week and it is collecting dust. Very bad outcome. I expect to sand the deck down next. UPDATE. I sanded it down with a floor sander, 80/120 grits. I used Superdeck from ACE. This is the best stain I have seen. I used the stain for pressure treated wood, cedar color. Looks great. Very pleased.
Can you skim coat over gloss paint?
Assuming you are using a dye-based spray on stain, yes, if the gloss is already set up and scuffed! However,while spraying or applying, gloss is too wet/tacky to work with between coats! As I do at work using Acrylic Polyurethane paints onto cabinet parts, your best bet is to apply a first coat of satin, stain over that, then a final coat of satin to seal the stain! (NEVER apply gloss over an unsealed dye based stain, as the heavy material will have a tendency to pull your stain and make the color look uneven!) As soon as the satin is flashed off (10-30min, depending on paint and temp.) you can apply your gloss. This is the method we have used for decades on HIGH quality cabinets!
