The one 8,514 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I use yacht varnish but as said let it dry and air it Quote Link to post
bobcullen79 1,495 Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 I just use water based wood treatment, the crap you paint your fences with. Just give it a few coats and let it dry properly. Quote Link to post

Thats what i was planning to do but the boxes just soaked it up after about four coats i got fed up and coated them in yacht varnish as i thought they wouldn't be water proof Quote Link to post
