Well, it's not SW. Pratt & Lambert has Stainsheild that could be an option (Sherwin Williams owns Pratt altho they are not sold in the same retail locations). I'm not crazy about deck stuff from SW. JMPO. Colorwise, go to Lowe's and buy a $5 or $6 tester can of Cabot's Dune Grey. Can also order Cabot's testers of stain colors directly from their website. I've custom mixed stain colors using those tester cans. Has to be a 50/50 ratio, however.

I would agree with the discussions staying away from blue based stains. Blues and purples really can fade in the sun without a UV stablizer added. My house is purple, but I went with a US paint company that supplies chemical additives and preservatives to the paints based on a by-need basis. That's not always easy to find, and it looks like you are in a rural area. Even harder. Your house is lovely. I love your metal roof. I bet it sounds fantastic when it rains!! I agree with some nice plantings around the base of your home and not to worry about staining or painting there. I stuccoed mine simply because we haven't been able to plant on two sides with concrete walkways/a driveway attached to the house. I can't wait for the day we can have that torn out and I can add plants! It will anchor the house to the landscape, and I think adding foundation plantings would do the same for you. GGG

Thank you! Love the color palette. Do you happen to know the colors? Thanks again!

When I bought my house that stain was on the deck. I went over it with Sherwin Williams solid stain in a much lighter color. Completely obscured the red. Consider grade school lessons on mixing colors if you are going to use a transparent or semitransparent stain. Recall that red and yellow make orange, not what you're going for I imagine. Red and green make brown I think. Anyway, here's some info on mixing colors. https://www.enchantedlearning.com/crafts/Colormixing.shtml
