Armstrong Clark Wood Deck Stains

Written by Scott Paul
User Rating: / 15

Armstrong-Clark Stains were designed to achieve the highest quality in exterior wood and deck preservation. Unparalleled in durability and beauty, Armstrong Clark Wood Deck Stains will preserve, protect, and enhance all unfinished exterior wood. Environmentally Friendly Oil-Based Wood Finishes, 68% of the ingredients used are from renewable, recycled materials and all Armstrong Clark stains are VOC compliant in the 50 states.
Quality is what Armstrong Clark brings to you. Backed by five generations of oil based coatings experience, coupled with modern technology, Armstrong-Clark can meet and exceed your need for oil based wood coatings.
Arm-Clark formulas have three components: drying oils (37%) , nondrying oils (38%) and solvent (25%).
  • The drying oil is made with linseed oil as it's main component. Within the dry side of the formula they include adequate fungicide, transparent oxide pigments, some natural pigments, dryers, water repellents and several proprietary components. This dry side of the formula is designed to stay on or just inside the wood.
  • The nondrying oils are mainly paraffinic. Since paraffinic oil is lighter than water and can lift with the rain, we fortify the oil with additives that return the paraffin and increase the weight. These nondrying oils completely separate from the drying oils and soak deep into the wood to restore lost natural oils and to dramatically increase the useful life of the wood.
  • The solvent is added to increase the penetrating power of the oils. The solvent allows the drying and nondrying oils to penetrate into the wood fibers and return to their original viscosity for increased longevity.
This approach to formulation has allowed Arm-Clark stains to be applied to virtually any wood substrate, from hardwoods such as IPE, to pressure treated woods, cedar, redwood, to T111

Armstrong Clark Wood and Deck stains are formulated in 3 different series: Transparent, Semi-Transparent, and Semi-Solid. All will show the natural grain of the wood with the difference being the amount of pigment added. Available in over 10 colors

Armstrong Clark Stains can be applied in direct sunlight and heat of day. If the first coat penetrates within 30 minutes a second coat can be applied for extra protection. Easily applied by brush, roller, garden sprayer or airless spray equipment.
When spraying — back-rolling or brushing will help even out appearance. If there are any puddles or glossy spots after 24 hours, remove with dry rag. Complies with all government environmental standards.
Contains no offensive odor.

I have been using the Armstong stain for the last few years. I love this
product! It makes my cedar absolutely beautiful! It applies very easy compared
to the past stains that I have used.

This product was indeed recommended by my carpenter for the decks and the three
different variety of the products is an eye opener for me to ask for particular
finish. thanks.

It is a revelation to read that viscosity contributes to the longevity. Good to
know that the solvent increases the penetrative power.

What is the amount of pigment added in the semi solid variety of the deck stain?
What is the percentage of the remaining ingredient?

The amount of pigment varies from color to color in the semi-solids. The total
amount of solids for the Armstrong Clark wood stains exceed 60+%
