Thank you!! Like you, I decided Ready Seal was the perfect product to stain my cedar deck. However, I couldnt find real good color samples on line or even at the store!! I asked the store to wipe some stain on a test cedar plank I brought. I dont think he applied it properly, be anyway she liked the Mahogany color as well. I thought Pecan would look better. We are trying to stay away from an orange appearance. I typed Ready Seal Pecan into Yahoo and here you are! Perfect to see the true colors of the stains! Thank you so much! Will show here these tonight.....pretty sure it will be Mahogany vs. Pecan! Subscribed so I could see the end result of your project. I will be staining by mid- end next week. Great samples!
Thank you for doing that video! My husband is building a dining buffet/hutch with Western Red Cedar and I am not sure what I want to do with it. I so appreciate seeing the different stains.
Thanks so much for the video. I saw that you could buy samples but I did not want to spend the money or time. But it was great that you made a video showing the samples. I had a cedar fence put in last month with a concrete base along the back part of my property that's along the alley. I decided to go with pecan. Something not too dark and not too light. I wanted a color that had enough pigment in it so the color would last more than a few years before it would have to be redone. Looks like you do nice detailed work.👍
Your welcome, and good choice. I’m letting my fence wear on the stain. I’ll be doing a pressure wash and then restraining with a darker stain. Natural cedar seems to require a coat every two years. Thanks you
Thanks man, that really helped me a great deal! Was uncertain based on the color samples seen online. I have finally decided to go with pecan. It also seems to be readily available at Home Depot. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing - SO helpful! I went with Pecan for my pergola and it turned out so much more orange than I thought it would. For my fence, I went with Dark Walnut - much better.
When I look at photos online the mission brown looks more grey with green tones and the burnt hickory looks more black/brown with subtle red tones. They look reverse in this.
Steve Z I went with natural cedar cause my wife changed her mind at the last minute. But that mahogany is real nice. I think that one is a darker stain that would have made our fence pop. I’m fixing to give my fence its 2nd coat in two weeks. Your welcome boss, and Good luck!
@@stevez2270 Just curious how the redwood color you stained your fence with is holding up after 3 years? What type of backpack sprayer did you use? Will be staining my new fence next weekend. Thanks for any tips… my first time😊
Like and shared. Thank you so much for taking the time to share the specific stains with western red cedar. That's exactly what we needed to see. If you already did a finished video and can drop a link that would be awesome.
Paul McGhee I’m glad this helped here is the link to my dunce with the Stain applied to it. Came out very nice. I plant to give it one more coat this spring. It got cold on me so I wasn’t able to get the second one on. th-cam.com/video/0P3Dti3lJxs/w-d-xo.html
I'm stuck between redwood and natural cedar. Will be putting this on a large stockade fence as also on a pergula on the front of the house. Thoughts anyone?
Blessings in an abundance of the faith. I salute you. 😘🙏 Grace and peace be unto you and to this place. Thank you for inspiration and teaching and hope. God bless you. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your LORD and personal saviour??? I do.
Blues Dirt it doesn’t recommend. But everyone who actually does this for a living that I talked to recommended two coats. I can actually tell a difference between one coat vs two. So as soon I apply the second I post up another video showing the one coat after 10 months vs 2 coats. They do recommend an application every 4 to 5 years. It depends where you live do to the amount of rain one gets.
Brandon Crumpton sorry sir, apparently Amazon no longer carries these. I was trying to find them for you but wasn’t able to. They do have them at the Ready Seal website. www.readyseal.com/product/ready-seal-sample-can-set-all-colors/
I plan to go with a darker stain when I stain my fence again. The natural Cedar seems to fade within two years. I was told that it would be best to go with a darker stain due to the sun beating down and fading the lighter stains faster. A darker stain is said to last up to 4 plus years. I live here in Texas
Mario is the natural, called natural oak? Or simply natural? I saw another channel with ready seal product but he used an oak color that looks similar?
In my opinion they all look cheap. Should have gotten a red cedar stain. Now that would have made your fence pop. I did mine that color and everyone wanted to know the name.of the stain. Try it on a sample piece. You'll love.it
They love it. I actually asked their permission before I put it up. I gave them a lay out of how it was going to look. I explained it would be a neighbor friendly fence. I also had other neighbors who live further down come up and tell me how much they loved the fence.
Eh, I had 5 acres in South Florida, fenced all the way around with (2) 6-foot gates. Now in Alabama I have the same. I never knew front fencing was an issue?
@@user-bm5qk4eq8ca big issue in neighborhoods. Notice how his front fence is very short? The reason is that if everyone put up 6 ft fence it would look like some sort of military compound or imply that the area is dangerous. Very isolating feeling and not very homey feeling. As a result property values go down because the neighborhood is now undesirable. Just imagine walking down the street walking your dog or whatever and seeing nothing but fencing and the tops of houses
Yeah, it wasn’t like that for long. But then again I don’t believe Any yard looks perfect when the outside is being worked on. It didn’t help that a thunderstorm hit when I was in the middle of working on it.
Many thanks for taking the time to share your results - this helped me out a LOT in choosing a tone for our cedar decking!
Thanks so much for sharing! This will help me decide what to stain my new pressure treated redwood fence. SUPER helpful!
A happy wife makes a happy life! Blessings and thank you , dear man!
The concrete work in the backyard looks really nice.
Thank you for putting in the work to share this, Mario!

You are the man! Thanks so much for making this, extremely helpful.
Well done on the design of the fencing in the front yard.
Thanks for making this videos helped out with picking up the colors
I love that mahogany wood color. I think that's the color I'll pick too. Best wishes sir
beautiful work. I like the concrete under the wood fence great finish.
This video helped me! I actually am going for the darker stain lol
Super helpful!!
So helpful! Thank you!
Fence looks really good

awsome video. Really helpful!
Thank you ! I love the mahogany !
lisawidrig nice pick, I hope it comes out nice for you
so helpful. thank you!!
What did you decide to go with? We are looking at possibly the Dark Walnut.
Thanks man, that really helped me a great deal! Was uncertain based on the color samples seen online. I have finally decided to go with pecan. It also seems to be readily available at Home Depot. Thanks again.
You’re welcome boss, I’m glad it helped.
thanks so much for doing this vid. I'll be using this stain on a pergola.
alex I’m glad it helped sir,
You do awesome work. I think I will go natural. Thank you
great video 👌👌
Great, thanks!

Can you share pictures. I’d like to see what those look like on a big project

I'll be staining eastern red cedar shortly. Need to settle on a semi transparent color.
Thanks for the video bro. Tryin to figure out what color to stain my fence so this was a big help👍. I’m tossed up between that mahogany and Pecan tho!

Went with the redwood after trying the samples and it looks fantastic. Used a backpack sprayer to apply and it was a breeze 😁 thanks again man!

@@Nicool333 what did you choose? I chose Natural cedar an I am happy with it. It looks like Pecan but not as deep.
@@moselc09 I chose natural cedar as well. It looks good but I kinda wish I would have done with the redwood. Ah well... First world problem...

Is ready seal stain better than Herman Williams Super Deck?

The darker the stain ,the better the uv resistance.
Can you drop the amazon link for the samples i couldn't find it thanks
Brandon Crumpton sorry sir, apparently Amazon no longer carries these. I was trying to find them for you but wasn’t able to. They do have them at the Ready Seal website. www.readyseal.com/product/ready-seal-sample-can-set-all-colors/
Can I ask how the sealer is holding up? and in what kind of weather

what did you end up choosing?
moselc.09 I went with Natural Red Cedar. Looks very nice. I have it only one coat. But now that it has warmed up. I’m going to give a 2nd.
Mario is the natural, called natural oak? Or simply natural? I saw another channel with ready seal product but he used an oak color that looks similar?
On Ready Seal, It is called Natural Cedar No 512.
I just looked up some other stains and apparently they now have a Natural Light Oak stain option. It’s No 105,
@@marioflores5949 Thank you
I wish you had played them outside under natural light
The mahogany sample is too red orange. A whole fence would probably be overwhelming.
In my opinion they all look cheap. Should have gotten a red cedar stain. Now that would have made your fence pop. I did mine that color and everyone wanted to know the name.of the stain. Try it on a sample piece. You'll love.it
What’s the name.
did you seal both sides or just one side
Seeing you’re an Eagles Fan I have to refuse to answer.
Okay, I guess I’ll answer your question. Haha, I sealed both sides.
@@marioflores5949 lol
Holy smoke. What do your neighbors think about your fence in the front yard? Highly unusual.
They love it. I actually asked their permission before I put it up. I gave them a lay out of how it was going to look. I explained it would be a neighbor friendly fence. I also had other neighbors who live further down come up and tell me how much they loved the fence.
@@marioflores5949 I love privacy, front and backyard privacy. I'd enjoy a front fence if my neighbors put one up, lol =)
