Product Description 
Ready Seal® Stain and Sealer for Wood is 
an oil-based, semitransparent stain and 
sealer in one. It is a unique blend of oils, 
quality resins and finely ground pigments 
that penetrate deeply to protect and 
preserve the wood from the elements. 
Ready Seal® semi-transparent stains 
enhance the natural beauty of the wood by 
reacting with its natural characteristics 
and allowing the texture and grain of the 
wood to remain visible. 
Ready Seal® may be used on any exterior 
wood project. Ready Seal® is effective on 
all types of wood and shows excellent 
results on premium-grade lumbers, 
including Western Red Cedar, Douglas 
Fir, Cypress, Spruce and Redwoods. 
Coverage Rates 
These calculations include enough stain 
for new wood. Older wood is more porous 
and requires more stain.
