Product Q&A

Answer:

Penashield and Boracare do have the same active ingredient and are similar but not the exact same product. Penashield is used as is and should be used every 1-5 years (on outside wood that is not painted) while Boracare lasts for the life of the wood in favorable conditions and is a concentrate.  For indoor wood and wood that is painted/stained both will also last for the life of the wood. We would recommend using Boracare if you are seeking a longer lasting treatment.
