Wullz 408 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Have seen some bad decking related injuries over the years, usually on the wrong side of a BBQ and plenty of refreshments.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 You'll have to regularly blast it no matter what you put on it. I'd use decking oil myself, if you start painting it in time it will start cracking off and looking shit. If you clean it and apply oil once a year it will last you years..
