Hottest Deck Stain #4

California Rustic

Opaque colors like California Rustic are especially appealing as a stain choice if you have an older worn or weathered deck. It stands out from other stain colors for its remarkably dark red hue, which allows it to make a statement, without being gaudy. 

California Rustic is also an ideal color for homes with brick exteriors, as the shades are similar enough to match, but not so similar that the colors are identical and monochromatic.

If you're considering wood stain colors with classic charms and bold colors, then California Rustic should certainly be on that list.

White Birch

Semi-transparent colors like White Birch make ideal stain colors if you want to show off the natural grain of your deck while adding a pop of color to the wood.

White Birch is a subtle stain which will brighten up your deck and, by virtue of being a lighter shade, cause it to look larger. The cherry on top?

Because White Birch is a bright and semi-transparent shade, it makes a beautiful highlight to high-quality woods in a way that thicker, darker colors of wood stain simply can't match.

Hottest Deck Stain #1

Clear Sealant

It's hard to beat the classics, and natural wood tones will always make for stylish colors of wood stain. Clear sealant can reliably show off the natural beauty of your wooden deck or patio.

Clear is ideal for high-quality wood that is resistant to wear and tear, as it provides the lowest protection among deck stain colors.

That said, the look of a naturally-colored deck is often enough to make up for the decreased defense.
