Semi-Transparent Wood Stains

Understanding the WeatherOne® Stain System

Selecting the right stain colour involves more than appearance alone. The WeatherOne® system is structured to help professionals match colour opacity to wood condition, design intent, and performance needs.

Translucent Stain Colours

Highlighting Natural Wood Character

Translucent WeatherOne® stains are designed to enhance the natural beauty of wood while allowing the grain and texture to remain highly visible. These colours provide subtle tinting and protection, making them suitable for new or well-maintained wood where natural character is a priority.

Professional considerations include:

Maximum wood grain visibility
Natural, understated colour enhancement
Best suited for high-quality wood substrates

Because colour results vary by wood species and preparation, on-site testing is essential prior to approval.

Semi-Transparent Stain Colours

Balancing Colour and Wood Visibility

Semi-transparent WeatherOne® stains offer increased colour depth while still allowing wood grain to show through. This option is frequently specified when professionals want to unify appearance across varied wood surfaces while retaining a natural look.

Common professional uses include:

Decks, siding, and fences
Projects with mixed wood tones
Situations requiring moderate colour control

Semi-transparent stains are a versatile choice for many exterior wood applications.

Solid Hide Stain Colours

Maximum Colour Coverage and Uniformity

Solid hide WeatherOne® stains provide the highest level of colour coverage, offering a painted appearance while retaining the protective benefits of a stain system. These colours are ideal for older wood, repaired surfaces, or projects where uniform colour is required.

Professionals often specify solid hide stains for:

Weathered or previously coated wood
Colour standardization across multiple structures
Projects prioritizing durability and ease of maintenance

Solid hide stains offer the most consistent colour results across varying substrates.

Exterior Performance in Canadian Conditions

Climate and Exposure

WeatherOne® stain colours are formulated to perform under UV exposure, moisture, and seasonal temperature fluctuations common across Canada. Colour selection should consider fade resistance, exposure orientation, and long-term maintenance expectations.

Substrate Variability

Wood species, age, and surface preparation all influence final stain colour. Professional testing on representative samples is critical to confirming expected results before final specification.

Guiding Client Decisions

Professionals play a key role in helping clients understand the differences between translucent, semi-transparent, and solid hide stain colours. The WeatherOne® stain system supports this consultative process by clearly defining performance and aesthetic outcomes.
Using professional samples and on-site testing helps:

Set realistic expectations
Reduce rework and callbacks
Support confident approvals

Residential and Multi-Unit Developments
