@gory716 we are away to try it. Lots of posts saying it last much longer than normal. We used normal fence paint last September and fence is green already

Decking oil. I’d do it sept and March every year if you want it to last. Plus it ensures the wood stays well fed

Decking oil or stain is your best best. Paint just chips away and looks rubbish after a few weeks
