Perma Chink's Deck Defense deck finish is designed to keep your decks, railings, and fences looking great for longer. It is a waterborne product, offering the penetrating properties of oil-based finishes, but hardening into a lattice-like coating that reinforces and strengthens the wood fibers. Sun, wind, and water won't be able to damage your investment with this product, which is easy to apply and maintain. Deck Defense comes in seven colors to match your exterior wall finishes and can be applied over existing Deck Defense deck finishes with proper application and surface preparation.
