What is an easy to apply stain and sealer for 2x6 t & g and trim? Is there a one coat waterbase stain?

Thanks

I like the old standard Danish Oil that comes in natural & various stain tints. Pops out the grain and soaks in to provide both protection and a wear surface. Doesn't leave a hard finish so is easy to redo and touch up.
None of us are as smart as all of us.

I used Minwax water based clear polyurethane----doesn't yellow over time and easy to apply

Appreciate it, but my athritus needs less work. Is there something easy to stain and finish with one coat? thanks

Is water base on coat no sanding? Thanks

I only used one coat of Minwax polyurethane on my T&G and no sanding----looks good. You can buy it as a clear finish or mixed with stain.

I love the look of the Minwax clear Poly-Crylic (sp ?) that rw mentioned. Crystal clear so you see the natural color od the wood.

Is this T&G already installed or waiting to be installed after staining?
Just because something has been done and has not failed, doesn't mean it is good design.
