Hi all,
I have scoured this site AND google but I’m just not finding satisfactory answers to my questions.
I want to protect the inside of my coop, or at least extend its life. I already have vinyl I’ll be putting down, but I want to stain (I think) the walls. I don’t want to paint because I flat out don’t want to deal with the possibility of chipping now, or ever.
So I’m wondering about just staining the walls, no Poly or Urethane or anything. (Poly could still chip, urethane is expensive and high VOC).
1. Has anybody done stain only? Can you offer any feedback
2. would stain alone offer any protection against mites?
3. Has anybody tried any natural oils as a stain such as Tung oil?
thanks for any input!
