Question

Can anyone advise of the best product to use on my decking & railway sleepers? I want to keep the natural colour of the wood, it just needs bringing back to life a little? Thanks

Answer 1

Definitely decking oil.

@conlon thank you

We use this one. Natural finish just gives it a bit of life. Not much colour at all. We went for natural oak this year

@conlon that's exactly the look i was after! Thanks

@dissonance459 well the one in the pic we used is natural oak. Natural pine (we had that last year) is nice too just slightly lighter and a more of a yellow tone than a brown one if that makes sense. No worries! It’s around £44 for 5litres from wickes or bnq but bnm sell it for £26

Answer 2

I use cuprinol natural decking oil. Darkens it slightly bit not too much

Answer 3

You might just see the board at the bottom that hasn't been done (it is now)

Burn slightly with a weed burner and then oil.  

Answer 5

Answer 6

And the finish was like this

@almuce412 that's a lovely rich colour. I have 3 tiers of decking so don't want to be doing it every year!  

Answer 7

Ronseal natural decking oil or pine but you have to do it every year  

Answer 8

Decking oil, I used the screw fix no nonsense one this year, as I like the natural sunbleached look.
