I have a treated wood deck which I left untreated for a few months. It looks dry. I just want to seal it with a natural look/ clear. No stain. What is the best sealant for a heavy use Pool Deck?

Defy epoxy.  http://www.defystain.com/defy-epoxy-stain.html

It's tough, durable, and it stands up to sun like nothing else I've seen.

just did a 2 inch concrete deck for a gal. vinyle (or trex) style railing etc. Paint/maintenance free. Problem over for at least 2 generations.  I know not much help but people are really happy with them once they open up to the idea and when its all done.

TWP --total wood protection
I use the natural cedar tone on mine and it honey colored the wood nicely

Yep, the brand is TWP.  I have a 5 gallon pale of TWP-100 in pecan.  I'm just waiting for a nice break in the weather to apply it.  Go to their website, they have a good tech support.  

The stuff is supposed to be great.
