Scott,

You were very kind this spring to send some Defy samples my way. These will be used in conjunction with various other stains to test on my own ipe' deck. That is, if we can find the time this year to strip and redo my own wood! Kind of like the shoemakers' kids going barefoot.

Call me old school, but at the moment could not recommend putting down any water based stain on any wood to a customer. The job in this thread will be a first for us, and it is only because the customer specifically requested the same product be applied to their ipe'.

Thank you for the offer, I do appreciate it. Maybe some other wood contractor would be more likely to use the 5 gallons and report back to you.
