We are almost done building our front porch using FSC ipe and now need to decide on the sealer. Would like to add a stain with the sealer as well.

So far we are looking at Vermont Natural Coatings PolyWhey Exterior Clear Wood Finish, Seal-Once Exotic Wood Waterproofer, and Weather-Bos.

Any comments on these brands or are there other brands you prefer?
Thank you!
