    Got a great sale price and the painter applied it perfectly. I've used this exact stain twice before with the same results.

    Garbage stain, the can’t properly colour match

    14 days ago
    Bought 6 gallons to do a large deck, using a spray gun, found out after applying that they did not properly colour match them. Tried to get it rectified at the local Canadian tire and was offered another gallon of paint that could not be Color matched…. Complete waste of time and energy.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    We have a weathered, 20 year old fence and long overdue for a stain job. I'm very happy with with how the Premier semi-transparent cedar stain covered and revitalized our backyard fence. Looks new! CTC had it on at a great price so all is good. Happy with the purchase.

    Q: I have a cedar cabin that's in desperate need of re-staining next year. Would this be ideal to use during summer or should I go the premier active if im doing it in summer? Cheers

    • A: Premier - Product expert or Bill33 is there a 5 gallon option available? I want to not have to use so many paint buckets and I'm going to use a spray gun. I'm looking at approx 10-15 gallons needed roughly. Love this product btw used Premier Extra semi-trans cedar on my front porch, side entrance and back deck with proper prep (wood cleaner, food filling and sanding) and it seems to do well was under time crunch doing it in Sept/Oct but thankfully it was sitting above 5*C during the night. Cedar colour does look a little darker but i think it's because of using a paint brush it coated a little thicker than using a spray gun. Didn't matter the missus preferred it anyway because she wanted a darker stain. And also when using wood filler, don't go Lepage unless its you need to fill big cracks, use Elemer's probond max golden oak. Its blends better with the stain and isn't as visible after 1-2 coats. I'll put a review after 2yrs to show before and after pics to show the proof in the pudding

    • A: Bonjour Norm, oui, s'il le bois est neuf, vous pouvez utiliser un apprêt scellant et s'il s'agit d'un bois plus âgé, vous devrez enlever l'ancien produit en le ponçant avant de l'appliquer. Nous espérons que ces informations vous aideront. Vous pouvez également visiter votre magasin Canadian Tire local pour obtenir plus d'informations ou nous appeler au 1-866-PAINT99 .

    • A: Hi Margot, great question! 2 thin coats are recommended and the second coat may be applied minimum 2-24 hours after the first coast has dried. Of course this also depends on your current weather conditions as they could affect drying time. Should you have any further questions please contact us by email at premier@ucppaint.com

    Q: Quels sont les bonnes étapes pour préparer le bois à teindre? Notre nouvelle clôture en cèdre devrai être teinte au printemps prochain. Doit-on laver, sabler la clôture lorsque nous allons la teindre avec Premier teinture pour bois?

    1 Answer
    • A: Bonjour Ben07, Tout d'abord, vous allez commencer par laver la surface - veillez à ce que la surface sèche pendant plusieurs jours avant de la poncer. Si vous lavez la surface sous pression, veillez à ce qu'elle sèche pendant quatre jours. Une fois la surface sèche, poncez-la avec un papier de 120 grains. Lorsque vous appliquez de la teinture, nous vous suggérons de ne pas le faire en plein soleil. Essayez de teindre à des températures comprises entre 15 et 24°C. Si vous avez des questions concernant les projets futurs, veuillez nous contacter au 1-866-PAINT99 ou par courriel à premier@ucppaint.com et nous serons heureux de vous aider.
