[quote=barnaby33]So you are a tree hugger till you want what you want? I for one am shocked! Never mind that a Pergola is in no way shape or form a need, you just sound like a douche.
I have no idea whether the stains in question are bad for the environment, but your tone is just awful.

I’m for environmental laws that make sense and think about the whole picture. It’s great that we have reduced VOC’s, but when doing so renders the product nearly useless, it’s a problem. What is the environmental cost of having to reapply stain every other year, or worse yet having to repair/replace that pergola because it wasn’t properly treated?
