Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
As everybody else has pointed out, a stain that is as opaque (paint-like) as possible.
Before I replaced the 25 year old deck boards I used a dark brown stain...and grew to hate it (full sun, got very hot)
After replacement I went with brick red...looks good, but still too hot.
In retrospect with new deck boards I should have gone with a "honey" color and resigned myself to re-applying much more often.
