We wanted to share the process and product for treating the wood siding on Ballard Aperture. Most stain products last from 1-5 years depending on the transparency level and penetrating quality of the stain (usually less in the northwest). For this project we used LifeTime Wood Treatment (click on the name for more info). The best part besides being low-toxic is it will never require any maintenance for the life of the wood. That means no fading or re-staining... EVER!
Below are some pictures of the bath method we used to treat the wood which is a superior method over spraying or applying with a brush or roller.
