Required Stain Has Re-Branded Name

Woodluxe exterior stain from Benjamin Moore is the new name for what had been their Arborcoat exterior stain. In KPVillas, homeowners must re-stain every six years and use the product specified in KPVA documents. Wayne McKenzie of Christopher McKenzie Painting & Staining, a recommended service provider listed in KPVA Resources, says the formula for Woodluxe is essentially the same, but the branding has changed.

Woodluxe stain is a rebranding of Arboarcoat stain.

From the Frequent Maintenance Issues on page 39 of 40:


RE-STAINING – Must be completed every 6 years using specified stain (see pp.6-7, #13, footnote 2); schedule and stain color set by Architectural Control Committee (ACC). After consulting with the ACC owners have the option of changing to another color among the eight options as long as the new color selected is not the same as their immediate neighbors. Please note that the wood trim, mailbox posts, yard lamp posts, wood or metal garage doors, and service doors must also be stained. Any warped, cracked or deteriorating cedar siding must also be replaced at this time. The only stain that may be used is Benjamin Moore Arborcoat Solid Deck and Siding Stain. The approved supplier is C. E. Lee 1725 N. Ironwood, South Bend, IN, 574-262-6888. Owners may use any contractor (although a list of available contractors can be requested from the ACC). A Staining Completion Form must be completed and returned when staining is finished. Details involving your villa staining are typically mailed (USPS) a year in advance, allowing you ample time to schedule a contractor, since their schedules for a given year fill up rapidly in the spring.
