Only info I've seen is in Consumer Reports. I'll be the first to
say, they don't know Jack S$$t about some things. But they seem ok
on paint. And they've had an annual article running for several
years now on exterior sealers and stains.
They have said most of them are nearly worthless. The heavily
advertised "Thompson's" products in particular, were of little or no
value. Some of the stains lasted two seasons, but I figure once you
start with those, you're stuck continuing with them.
I'm leaving mine bare, and going composite when it rots.
