Creating a long lasting “as natural as possible” look in our lovely PNW is actually quite the challenge. Clear tongue and groove cedar needs to be sealed, and most ways to do that will change the color. The best method known to keep it as unchanged as possible is with a clear waterbase finish. It won’t last as long as an oil, but it will have that natural look everyone loves! We also stained the surrounding beams to match and did some touch up on the exterior as the final stage of this incredible outdoor patio addition.
