when to stain cedar siding

Greetings,

I recently bought a place with cedar siding. I know absolutely zip about staining or how to maintain. My question is when should I stain it? My place is approximately 9 months old.

Thanks!!

If you decide to use a clear wood finish like Floods CWF-UV, you should wait for one full year. These type finishes are penetrating oils and the more porous the cedar, the better.

The Flood Company makes a variety of quality exterior wood products. Call Tech Service at 1800-321-3444 for advice or visit:www.floodco.com

Hello RC101 .... thank you very much for your reply .... i'll probably do the house in October or maybe even leave it until next summer, if that's okay to wait that long.
