Manns Premier UV Decking Oil 5L - Natural Oak - A Multi-Purpose Decking Oil, That Protects Against Weathering & UV Damage

Product Information

However, specific information about the ease of application and enhanced appearance is not provided for the Manns Premier UV in the given details. Depending on individual needs and preferences, customers may prioritize the UV protection and weather resistance provided by the Manns Premier UV 5L Clear or the comprehensive features of the RONSEAL Ultimate Natural 5L, including its natural look and unique penetrating formula. One other thing to bare in mind is if the fence is rough sawn it will absorb far more of the product that the recommended guidelines and so give a more intense colour.

Am I right in saying either would have to be removed before applying more stain or oil? And if so how is that done? It also brings out the natural shade of wood on various surfaces like fences, sheds, and hot tubs. While the RONSEAL Ultimate Natural 5L offers a “natural look,” the Liberon Clear Protection is specified as providing a “clear finish.” The choice between the two would depend on personal preferences regarding the desired appearance and the additional feature of UV protection provided by the Liberon oil. If you keep up with regular maintenance there should be no need to retreat with the reviver, but if you do need to use it again in the future the oil will need to have worn away or you can use a pressure washer to remove the last of it.Protect interior and exterior wooden surfaces with the unrivalled durability of wood varnishes. A great range of clear and coloured formulations. Oils and Varnishes are not compatible except in very rare situations. So I would not advice it, the varnish is unlikely to adhere to the oils surface. If you need any further advice on your project please do not hesitate to get in touch. My advice will be to get a preservative on the wood first, this will protect against mould, mildew and rot. A popular option is the Barrettine Premier Universal Preserver which is a clear finish. Its a bit of a battle to maintain the natural colour of these types of woods I am afraid, they will just naturally silver and for many people this is the desired result. It is a balancing act to get the best for the wood, protection or colour. Also oiled finishes although dry and ready to use after 24 – 48 hours continue to cure and get more durable for days and weeks following application. Covering will prevent the natural curing process from occurring and this is one of the reasons we do not recommend putting rugs over and oiled floor for the first month.

I’m considering oiling it, but I’m not sure about whether to use an anti-greying reviver beforehand. Ahandytip before we get started is to keep an eye on the weather forecast as we are going to need a couple of clear days to get the project done properly trust me it’ll be worth it in the end. Thank you for getting in touch with your question. It is a common question asked for beautiful tropical hard woods such as Ipe, Balua and Iroko. Jatoba is a less common one, however if it is anything like the others it will require a period of weathering. Tropical hardwoods tend to have a naturally high oil content when they are relatively new, these oils will prevent the uptake or adhesion of any product that you try to apply. So a weathering period to allow these oils to naturally disperse is the recommendation.It would be one or the other as they are not compatible products. The Oils are designed to soak into the surface of the wood and protect. It gives a natural look and feel to the wood and is easy to apply and maintain over time, by simply re-coating when you feel the wood needs it. A slight concern I had was the tendency of the product to clog when left in a spray applicator. However, with a bit of cleaning and attention, it can still be used effectively in this manner. As the wood is Balau there may be a naturally high oil content already and a test area first to ensure the wood will accept further oil is strongly recommended. You could wipe down the surface of the wood with Methylated spirits first as this will encourage the wood to accept more oil. Then two thin coats are all that is required. What amazed me the most was the oil’s protective qualities. After treating the table, I noticed that water beaded up on the surface instead of soaking in, making it easy to clean and maintain. Plus, it worked wonderfully on both interior and exterior wood surfaces, giving it versatility and broad applicability.

I would advice applying a second coat to ensure that the wood is protected against moisture as this is the biggest threat to exterior wood.

Having recently used Remmers Douglas Fir Oil on my garden furniture, I found it to be an excellent choice for protecting and preserving the wood. It’s an eco-friendly option with the EU Ecolabel award, and that’s important to me as I try to make more sustainable choices in my day-to-day life. Once restored and dry, I would recommend a wipe over with Methylated Spirits also and then a test area to ensure you like the finish that will be achieved it is ready for which ever oil you choose to protect with, a test area is always recommended first and if you have any further questions I am here to help. A range of interior and exterior wood oils suitable for any project and wood type. Includes traditional wood oils, Hardwax oils, wood oils with UV filters and more.But what about the colour. This is meant to be truly clear in spite of the UV protection, and the UV protection in all these oils and water based products is like a pair of sunglasses protecting the wood, which tends to involve the introduction of a pigment that can give the wood a yellow or other tint.

Thank you for getting in touch with your enquiry. It depends what was previously on the wood and how long ago it was treated. You can do an oil test, leaving a small drop of oil on the surface of the wood for around an hour and see how it reacts. If it moves or soaks in then you are likely to be able to apply an oil if it remains unmoved then the is something on the wood that is preventing penetration. Resistant to changeable weather conditions, general wear and tear, prevents wood from greying and splitting. Thank you for getting in touch. I can make some recommendations for a protective product, however anything you apply may darken the wood slightly, much like water does. Over time this could fade down although you may not be able to fully maintain that silvered appearance. As you have a dog I would recommend considering an oiled finish, this will be far easier to maintain over time, oils soak into the wood surface and so is less likely to be effected by claw marks, and even if it is, you can simply patch repair and the oil will blend well. Oils are also easy to maintain as they wear, simply ensure the surface is clean and dry and then you are able to apply a top up coat when needed, usually around 1 or 2 years down the line, depending on use. What would you recommend we do to the floorboards now? Should we treat them with an oil now, before laying vinyl? Or would that be a bad idea? Or is there a basic preservative that we should apply, to ensure that they don’t get damaged by damp or whatever? Or will they be fine, as long as the cabin is well enough put together?

And there wasn’t much love for the Ronseal Ultimate Protection which in Nigel’s experience only lasted 6 months, and others have said has a tint - a horrible yellow colour. And indeed it’s a fact that the Ronseal clear has a slight pigment in it, which gives it its UV protection Can reduce the visibility of the wood grain due to the pigmented film between the timber and the surface An oil soaks into the surface of the wood and will wear away over time. A stain, paint or varnish is a surface sealer and over time could peel and flake, exposing bare wood underneath. Paint, stains or varnishes can be removed with a stripper such as Paint Panther Paint and Varnish Remover. Oils unfortunately can not and if you can’t wait for them to wear away naturally the you can use a pressure washer to remove much of it, care must be taken not to damage the wood however.
