A: Cedar (usually Western Red Cedar) is highly favored for its unique natural properties:
Natural Resistance: Cedar contains natural oils (thujaplicins) that act as natural preservatives, making it highlyresistant to moisture, rot, decay, and insect attack (especially termites).
Aroma: It has a pleasant, mild, natural scent that many people find appealing.
Lightweight: It is one of the lightest woods used for outdoor furniture, making the benches easy to move around the yard or patio.
A: Structurally, Cedar will last a long time even when untreated, but its appearance will change dramatically:
Patina: Untreated Cedar will naturally weather over time, turning from its original reddish-brown color to a beautiful, soft,silvery-gray patina. It is a desired look for many rustic or coastal aesthetics.
Surface Check: The wood's surface will begin to check (small cracks) and become slightly rougher, while the core will remain resistant to rot.
Maintenance for Longevity: Even if you prefer the gray look, applying a clearUV-protective sealant every few years is recommended to help the surface resist excessive cracking and extend its lifespan.
A: It is generally recommended tostain or seal Cedar rather than paint it to leverage its natural beauty.
Staining: A semi-transparent stain will protect the wood while allowing the rich grain pattern of the Cedar to show through. Staining is a highly effective way to add color and UV protection without the high maintenance of painting.
Painting: Painting Cedar is possible, but its natural oils can sometimes cause paint adhesion issues. If painting, you must use a quality exterior primer specifically designed to block wood tannins and oils before applying the final exterior paint coat.
A: Cedar is asoftwood, making it structurally sound for benches, but not quite as complex or heavy as Hardwoods like Teak or Oak.
Strength: It is strong enough for any standard residential bench application (e.g., up to 6 feet long) and is suitable for high weight capacities.
Softness: However, its softness means it is more susceptible todenting and scratching than poly or hardwood. When cleaning, use a soft brush and avoid harsh abrasives to prevent damage.
