Important Instructions for Exterior Wood:
Exterior wood will require re-oiling at least annually; horizontal surfaces and very exposed locations may require more frequent attention. Oak and softwoods are prone to weather staining caused by moisture activating mould spores present naturally in the wood. Extra coats will be required initially to effectively seal these timbers; especially areas of endgrain and up to 6 coats may be appropriate with regular maintenance coats.
