The Boracare w mold care is about $40 more than straight Boracare, which is already expensive. Boracare seems to have done well for me for a couple years on slabs stacked outside, open to the rain, but I'm about to buy another gallon, and wonder if it's worth getting the Boracare plus mold.
Boracare by itself is advertised to prevent rot and to be a fungicide. So the only thing it doesn't cover seems to be mold. But $40 for a little bottle of mold preventative?
---Does the mold care stain wood?
---Anyone have any experience with it?
---Is there a cheaper alternative for mold prevention that penetrates wood, that rain won't immediately wash off, that doesn't also ruin wood's appearance?
