Honey, Cedar, Pecan, Redwood, Mahogany, Sequoia, Chestnut, Walnut, Palomino, Auburn, Sable, Chocolate, Cape Cod, Slate, Eucalyptus, Barnwood, and Black.
Each color is applied to real Western Red Cedar boards using actual EXPERT production stain.
Are these printed color samples or real wood?
These are real hand-cut Western Red Cedar boards stained with actual production stain. They are not printed cards or digital approximations.
Will the stain look exactly the same on my fence or deck?
Because wood is a natural material, the final color may vary depending on species, age, porosity, sun exposure, and preparation. For maximum accuracy, apply a sample can directly to your project surface before full application.
Is this the same stain sold in gallons?
Yes. The boards are stained using the same EXPERT production formulas sold in full-size containers.
Why not just use a printed color chart?
Printed color charts cannot show true penetration, grain interaction, or real-world stain behavior. This fan deck provides the most accurate representation possible before purchasing gallons of stain.
Is this useful for contractors?
Absolutely. Many contractors use the fan deck as a professional sales tool to secure written color approvals, prevent disputes, and reduce costly callbacks.
