Advice on deck stain

Hi y’all,

We’re replacing our pressure treated deck in Atlanta, GA. We have had a hard time finding a transparent stain that is dark. We tested a bunch of stains we could get from big box stores or Amazon, and we wanted to go with Ready Seal wood stain and sealer in dark walnut. I just ran into a painter friend, who mostly does interior, and he said this stuff won’t hold up very long and I’ll need to reapply every ~8 months.

Does anyone have experience with this line to confirm this? If so, do you have any recommendations for a dark, transparent stain, ie mot semi-transparent or semi-solid?
