Cabot Gold brings polish to decks

Cabot Woodcare has launched Cabot Gold, a "luxurious" new finish that brings beauty and strength to outdoor living.

The finish is designed to mimic the appearance of hardwood floors with a two-coat satin sheen that protects against UV sun damage, extreme temperatures and moisture.

"We're excited to launch Cabot Gold, a product that can stand up to weather's extremes and makes your deck or patio just as comfortable and welcoming as the indoor rooms of your house," said Russ Neale, director of product marketing for Cabot. "Cabot Gold provides a unique, polished look and allows you to use one single product for penetrating and sealing."

Cabot Gold will be available at home improvement retailers beginning this spring.

It comes in four different stain colors and can be used on both cedar and pine. Stain colors include Sun-Drenched Oak, Sunlit Walnut, Fireside Cherry and Moonlight Mahogany.
