Looking for clear waterproofing product that will last a few years and not need to be reapplied every year every 2 years. I living in Central NY so the winters are brutal.
used on my kids playset for many years with good results (was still in good enough shape for a second home after 10 years in the northeast) thompson is probably a little bit more effective in terms of water beading but this stuff works well without the solvents and odor. There is also an eco friendly product out of Buffalo I believe called seal once but I do not have experience with it. Acri-Soy - ( New Window )

I had a house on Cape Cod near the water with 6 Decks. I used a number of different products, cheap, expensive. I found that a coat of Thompsons every year was the most effective. 25 years later and the deck boards never cracked or splintered.
myu adirondack chairs and some wooden block steps going into my backyard I use simple Thompson Water Seal. Its goes on very quick/easy with large paintbrush and last 1-2 years.
Have tried other brands like Behr but don't like them because they are too goopy/gluey and sometimes do not soak in enough unless you have prepped the wood and get it bone dry. And then it causes a big mess...

Called the Seal Once people, talked to their tech guy. He claims 3-4 years before I need to clean and refinish with their Marine product.

For winter? Interesting.
