What are the top 3 sealers for Cedar Siding

We have a cabin in Golden Colorado and are pressure washing and sealing it. We would like to know the top sealers that people use in this area.

First I need to say that this is my opinion and not based on any consumer reporting.

#1- Sikkens Cetol Log and Siding. This is the best for exterior wood siding like Cedar. It is very expensive, but worth every penny.

#2- Sikkens Cetol SRD Semi-Transparent Stain. Another very good product. Although it isn't as good as the Log and Siding, it isn't as expensive either.

#3- Cabot's Semi-Solid Siding and Fence Stain. A very good product. It has more pigments that the Sikkens products, test for color acceptance before purchasing. Cabot's also has a semi-transparent that would be #4 on this list.
