Simply a better product
DEFY Extreme Wood Stain for Hardwoods contains powerful sunscreens to block damaging Ultra Violet (UV) rays. UV rays cause wood to turn gray and become susceptible to water penetration and decay. Oil based products naturally attract mold, mildew and algae whereas the synthetic resins aid in its prevention.
Except Clear. As Clear does not contain pigment it allows wood to gray naturally.

DEFY Wood Cleaner is a safe, powdered, oxygen bleach concentrate that is mixed with water to safely clean and restore the natural beauty of exterior wood. Unlike most chlorine bleach based cleaners, this environmentally friendly product is biodegradable and will not harm wood fibers, pets, grass or most plants. Using a chlorine bleach not only harms the wood as well as the vegetation surrounding the deck, but it doesn’t actually clean or remove any stains. It just bleaches them out.
