By far the most significant component of any deck staining project is the time it takes to prepare the surface and properly apply the stain. For a minimal increase in overall project costs, why not put on the best stain possible and enjoy a finished product that:
Looks Better
Lasts Longer
Applies More Easily
Extends Your Deck's Lifespan
There are so many deck stain choices available today that it's become impossible for professionals (let alone home owners) to determine which stain provides the best performance for the money. To make matters worse, many respected companies who have traditionally made great products have recently "tweaked" their formulations (i.e. reduced the amount and quality of resins and pigments) to achieve the supply price points required to sell through the big box stores and huge home-hardware chains.
The Beautiful Deck Company conducted its own product research to find the very best value stain available. The results were quite conclusive - a modest company called Messmers from the harsh ski climate of the western US supplies a line of stains that have stood the test of time. They have resisted the temptation of selling through the big box stores and as a result the terrific quality of their formulation has remained intact.
As an example of their commitment to high performance, Messmer's is one of the few companies to offer distinct formulations for each of the four main categories of outdoor lumber: Hardwoods (ex. Ipe), Softwoods (ex. cedar), Pressure-Treated and Composites.
NOTE: We can supply all tints that Messmer's comes in however if you don't see your preferred tint in the drop down "Colour" menu on the right then it will be a special order. Special order tints must be ordered in carton (4 can) increments and an extra $5 fee per can will apply. Email your request to sales@beautifuldeck.com and we'll send a quote.
This is a very high-quality penetrating stain (never use a film-forming sealant on Ipe) that is formulated especially for Ipe and other hardwood decks. It is also one of the few hardwood stains that can stand up well to extreme temperature changes.

Messmer's Caribbean Extreme Teak Oil Finish protects and conditions Teak, Mahogany or ay other exotic wood with the triple protection of three UV absorbers and stabilizers. Developed during a hobby project by the founder of Messmer's to formulate the absolute ultimate in a hardwood finish, it outperforms competitor's teak oils and often offers a cost savings as well.
Messmers UV Plus Original is formulated specially for cedar, pine, redwood, and other softwoods. It penetrates deep into the wood and has extremely high quality solids (resins & pigment particles) that provide unmatched protection and beauty.
NOTE: With Messmer's UV+ most of the resulting colour will come from the existing wood, with the various colour options just tinting the existing features and colour of the wood in one direction or another. For this reason good preparation of the wood is essential as Messmer's will enhance the look of what is already there - the better the wood looks before you oil, the better it will look afterwards. Due to the difficulty in safely packaging paint cans for shipment and/or transport All Messmer's Sales Are Final so if you are uncertain of tint or final result please trial the product with the sample cans available above before purchasing your overall order.
