Paint or Stain?  

​

Either will extend the lifespan of your fence or deck by providing protection against rot, insects, wear, and tear. However, of the two, it is always recommended that you stain a fence or a deck as opposed to painting it. Wood absorbs stain much deeper than it does paint. This means that paint, when it gets old, starts to chip, peel, and appear careworn, requiring near-immediate attention as soon as it starts to show signs of wear and tear. By contrast, stain will simply fade over time.

Staining also shows off the natural grain of the wood, which is preferable to many. Stain works by soaking deep into the wood, filling up gaps that would otherwise soak up moisture.
