I use an oil based product by Cabot. I only lasts a couple of years in the high traffic areas. I wish I could find a clear tint product that would last longer.

I've had a lot of luck with a product call Flood-Pro. It's sold at Dunn Edwards. Don't know if you can get it in your area, they stopped selling it in mine.

They have that brand at my local farm supply store. I may give it a try.
