Lifeline Ultra-2 Stain premium exterior stain is the first component of a highly durable two-component exterior wood finish system.  The two-coat application of Lifeline Ultra-2 helps to ensure consistent color development on your walls.  The second component is a clear topcoat of Lifeline Advance in either a Gloss or Satin sheen.  The advanced waterborne formula enriches the look of natural wood grain and protects against damaging ultraviolet rays from the sun. This two-component system has proven so durable that Perma-Chink covers it with a 5-year limited warranty. See Warranty.  

Both homeowners and contractors appreciate how easy it is to (1) apply with an airless sprayer or brush, as well as (2) maintain the finish over the years.  The smooth surface of the Lifeline Advance clear coat repels dirt and dust, and makes walls easier to clean.

IMPORTANT:  Use Wet Samples to choose stain color. 

Before purchasing stain, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND testing wet samples of the stain on your home in the color or colors that you are considering—for the following reasons:

  1. Stain color on your computer will look different on your home.
  2. The appearance of a stain color is affected by the wood being stained—due to factors such as wood species, texture, and porosity.
  3. Wet samples of stain are available at no or low cost.
  4. Choosing your stain color by first testing wet samples to know how it will really look on your home will ensure that you get the color that is just right for your home.
