Lifeline Advance finish works just like the clear-coat on your car to protect the Lifeline exterior color coat underneath. It extends the life of the finish system while adding depth and highlights to the appearance. It makes your exterior walls easier to keep clean.
Lifeline Advance has the right permeability to keep the film breathable while repelling liquid water.
Lifeline Advance is the second component in our exterior wall finish system that includes a limited warranty when used with Lifeline Ultra-2 and Ultra-7.

just like their acrylic interior this 5 gallon bucket also does not have a pour spout requiring the complete removal of the bucket lid to gain access to the liquid inside, totally unacceptable, quite messy to ladle out the contents into a smaller container for brushing on the logs while at the same time having an open top on the bucket leads to possible contaminants getting into the clear and quite unhandy to seal up and shake the pail to mix to contents thoroughly while in use, if they simply used the same lid as they us on the stains this wouldn't be an issue, if I could return this product I would gladly do so, love their chinking and stain but stay away from the clear top coats,

We had this applied to our log cabin 5 years ago. This year we reapplied lifeline advance top coat ourselves. We are very happy with the protection and appearance of the product. We have used other products on other log buildings in the past and this is by far the best quality.

Lifeline Advance Gloss over Ultra-2 stain is a fantastic combo. Wash twice/year and reapply Advance annually and most log surfaces (except those with full sun/weather exposure to east and south) will last for many years. And, if you need to spot reapply Ultra-2, you can just put it over the Advance residual and re-coat with Advance with no "patch" appearance.

We couldn't be happier with the entire line of Permachink products, but Lifeline Advance is the topping on the cake! It is very easy to apply, has a minimal non-offensive odor, and leaves a beautiful protective coating! This is a must-have product to finalize exterior log home protection. We've even used it on other outdoor wood objects, like our mailbox post!

Probably my favorite permachink product. All of their products are great but to me, Lifeline Advance stands out as the easiest and most pleasurable to use. It doesn’t stink, goes on smooth, has amazing coverage, and leaves a nice (satin) finish! I will be using it to protect our exterior wood for years to come.

Good product! Our house has been coated with Lifeline Advance Satin a couple of times since we used Ultra-2 Hazelnut as our stain back in 2012. It has held up pretty well, but we are thinking of switching to Lifeline Advance Gloss next time we update our finish because we learned it may help with our Carpenter Bee problem.

After doing a fair amount of research on the Permachink main website, as well as others, this product makes perfect sense.....the auto makers have been using a clear coat on their cars for years, why not one on log homes? And it's breathable and flexible to move and allow moisture movement too....cool stuff!

This clear coat looks as good after two years of hard Wyoming weather as it did the day after it was applied. It is very easy to apply with an airless sprayer and back brushing.

Lifeline Advance over Ultra 7 on cedar siding holds up as guaranteed even for a sun drenched southwest facing side of a house in the mountains of Idaho. Excellent UV resistance. Very impressed and will continue using it.

Lifeline Advance is easy to apply and looks really good. I was told by a rep for PCS that it is basically like the clear coat for your car to protect the stain coat.

Very pleased with this topcoat!!! I used the Ultra-7 stain for log homes and then I purchased the Advance Gloss clear topcoat to apply over it. It has been over a year now and it looks like it did when it was first applied.

After speaking with Amie at customer service, she broke down the importance of a Clear Topcoat and how the Advance protects the finish. I also noticed it brings out the color of Ultra 2 and makes my home stand out nicely.
