How did this Benjamin Moore white stain do after
5 years. NOT very well.
Have a look. After 5 years, this stain from Benjamin
Moore completely failed. Mildew and peeling is everywhere.
It has also trapped moisture behind the stain and caused
the wood to decay.
This type of problem you will never experience with linseed
oil paint. Linseed oil paint will nourish the wood not
allowing any moisture to be trapped.
