Refresh Your Wooden Patio Furniture with ARBORCOAT Premium Exterior Stai
It’s challenging to find the right Benjamin Moore paint for your projects with so many great options. If you’re looking for a new outdoor project, why not refresh your wooden patio furniture with our ARBORCOAT line of premium exterior stains?

Here at Cochrane Benjamin Moore, we love seeing our customers restore their decks, patio furniture, and other wooden structures.

Restoring your patio furniture is incredibly easy when using ARBORCOAT stains. These stains come in a variety of sheens and finishes that will leave your patio furniture looking beautiful and ready to entertain your guests.

Unlike normal paint, stain only comes in a flat sheen. But that doesn’t mean you can’t add a coat of clear coat afterwards to add a little extra protection to your wooden patio furniture. 

Flat stains are ideal for weathered and worn wood. They help cover up any imperfections that exist and offer vibrant colours.

What Finish Should I Choose for My Stain?

  • Translucent stains are the ideal choice if you want the natural wood grain to show through. However, this finish will also amplify any imperfections that exist.
  • Semi-transparent and semi-solid stains bridge the gap between solid and translucent finishes. These stains will show some of the natural wood grain.
  • Solid stains are similar to other Benjamin Moore paints and will hide most of the natural wood grain.
The hardest part is choosing. But here’s what we want you to know:
  • Our translucent stains come in six different colors.
  • Both our semi-transparent and semi-solid come in 75 different colors
  • Solid stains are available in over 4,000 colors

Why ARBORCOAT?

The ARBORCOAT line of premium exterior stains is designed to provide superior UV protection. It’s an excellent option for wooden decks and furniture, it’s mildew resistant, available in 75 colours, and works great with most softwoods.
