this should be good.. let the battle begin...lol

From the many posts the past 2-3 years about the GOOD, BAD and UGLY about SealMaxx it looks like from stories like this, the 'proof really is in the pudding (SealMaxx)'. Wish those guys the best in reclaiming their reputation . . . if they have . . . or ever had one.

Just heard another horror story . . . couple had Sikkens (fairly expensive proposition) applied 2 1/2 years ago to a 3 yr. old deck -- contractor GUARANTEED it would last a minimum of 5-7 years or more -- but failed earlier this year (either due to high UV exposure since the deck gets sunlight all day . . . or the way it was applied without a thorough sanding before the application . . . or both). They obviously weren't too pleased and are starting over with an initial cleaning/sealing with SealRx (another product with a 25 year warranty), complete sanding and then maybe applying a water-based/acrylic stain that should last this time the 5-7 years they're expecting for this application (if they decide on an appearance other than the natural wood finish). They heard and read about SealMaxx too and are expecting better results this time with SealRx . . . stay tuned.
