Sprucing Up My Exterior Fence with Flood

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Flood Wood Care. All opinions are 100% mine.

As I just finished up my staircase makeover, I now realize how important it is to use the right products to protect wood surfaces. After the stairs were complete, the Mister and I headed outdoors to finally paint the exterior fence that we gave a thorough washin a few weeks ago. Then it was time to protect it!

It was a hot and sticky day, but the work had to be done. The tried and true product to use for exterior wood stains and wood finishes is Flood Wood Care, which has been around since 1841 and has earned its reputation as The Wood Care Specialist.

Why go anywhere else?! The day we painted the exterior fence was hot, hot, hot, and honestly we have no interest in doing it again for a looooong time! Flood stain products give the perfect result because it delivers quality results and a long-lasting performance a product right up our alley.

Just like you need to apply sun screen to protect your skin from the sun, exterior woods (fence, decking, siding, furniture, playground equipment) need similar protection!

Huge difference, right? I decided to use a solid wood stain, but a semi-transparent which will show more of the beauty of the wood grain, is also a possibility. Check out more of the exterior wood products here - Flood has a huge variety to choose from.
