Redwood outdoor use should finish or natural aging debated
Experts disagree on how to treat redwood outdoors. Natural weathering darkens to driftwood gray or silvery tan, while water repellents delay darkening. Mildew possible, so mildewcide in repellents is advised. Bleach with mildewcide lightens, boiled linseed oil adds a back color if dampness is low, and pigmented stains create distinct tones though may rub off early.
