Deck Stain/Paint/Coating, Best Option

11 years ago

While our pool cures, we are having the deck and other cement work done, it will be stamped concreate,,, now, what is the best thing to do, stain it? paint it? or coat it? we live in So. Cal and summer temps average 100-1005 and lots and lots of sun, so fading is a consideration.

We have heard that Kool-Coat peels,,, is that true?

Thanks for any help!
