Enhances Natural Wood Grain
Fences and siding are some of the most visible wood surfaces on a property.
They face the street and shape the first impression your home makes. When a fence begins to gray out or siding starts to look weathered and uneven, it changes the entire feel of the exterior. And because these surfaces cover so much square footage, re-staining them isn’t a small project. It’s a commitment, and the wrong stain can quickly turn that commitment into a recurring one.
The problem with most stains is that they only coat the surface. Fences and siding take weather from every direction. One side may spend all day baking in UV while the lower boards sit close to ground moisture. Rain hits them horizontally, wind drives water into the grain, and over time that constant exposure breaks down surface coatings. They fade where the sun is strongest, peel near the ground, and leave the wood looking patchy again within a few seasons.
Weather Boss works differently because it doesn’t rely on a surface film.
Instead, it penetrates deep into the wood fiber and bonds within the grain itself. Cedar, pine, and douglas fir keep their natural texture and character while gaining protection from the inside out. UV fading slows, resistance to moisture and mildew holds steady, and because there’s no surface layer to crack or peel, the finish lasts far longer than traditional stains.

"Most stains I've tried eventually peel or flake off like old paint. Weather Boss actually soaks in. It’s been years since I applied it and the wood still beads water like I did it yesterday."

FAQs for Fences & Siding Projects
Weather Boss works on cedar, pine, douglas fir, redwood, pressure-treated lumber, and all other common fence and siding wood types. The natural oils and resins bond with the wood fiber regardless of species.
Yes. Pre-dipping individual boards before installation is one of the most efficient ways to apply Weather Boss to a new fence. It gives you complete coverage on all sides of each board, including the end grain and the back face that you can’t reach once the fence is up.
A standard 6-foot privacy fence uses roughly one gallon per 50 to 80 linear feet for both sides when applied by brush or roller, depending on wood porosity. For sprayer application, coverage may vary. Measure your fence run and plan accordingly. The 5-gallon container is typically the right choice for full fence projects. After applying your color stain coats, apply one to two coats of the Clear Sealer.
No, not if the old stain is still intact, but always power wash first. As long as it isn’t peeling or flaking, you can apply Weather Boss directly over it. If there are areas where the finish is peeling, simply power wash, scrape or sand those spots first. There’s no need to strip the entire fence.
South-facing surfaces typically receive the most UV exposure, which is why fade resistance is especially important for fences. Weather Boss protects against UV through its natural color pigments and the inherent UV-resistant properties of its tree oils and resins. Both sides of your fence receive the same level of protection, and that resistance holds regardless of the direction the fence faces.
For existing fences and siding, start by power washing and cleaning the surface thoroughly to remove dirt, mildew, and loose debris. If the wood has an older stain that’s still intact and not peeling, Weather Boss can usually be applied directly over it after power washing. If the finish is flaking or breaking down, scrape or sand those loose areas first so the stain can properly absorb into the wood.
Weather Boss can be applied by brush, roller, or sprayer depending on the size of the project. On new fence builds, many installers spray with a cordless backpack or pump sprayer then back brush with a large 4-6 inch deck brush which helps drive the stain deeper into the grain. Once applied, Weather Boss dries quickly, typically within 5 to 30 minutes, and can be used in temperatures as low as 32°F.
Coverage averages about 100 to 250 square feet per gallon, depending on the porosity of the wood and how the product is applied. For larger fence runs or siding projects, the 5-gallon container is usually the most practical option.Apply a final Clear coat sealer for maximum protection.
