ph5172 Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I have a 2 year old cheapy argos wooden outdoor set. the colour has almost gone and it could do with some protection / TLC. it’s acacia wood if that makes a difference. currently in argos for £120 and it’s not actually too bad Any ideas for oil / stain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strimmer_13 Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I sadolin all my garden furniture every year. I believe its just the 'classic' stain, about £30 for a 2.5ltr tin. It's fairly dark and covers a lot of imperfections, so if it's a nice grain and tidy I'd be more temped to use a linseed oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I use teak oil on my oak garden stuff. 2 coats. Does the job for a year and looks excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 We Sadolin the woodwork on our garden room and it has done the job for the last 25yrs. Just reminded me it needs refreshing as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatureBoy Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Saddolin classic of chosen colour if a cheapy. Flood it on. Do underneath first. Put some in a tub and stand feet in it a while. End grain will really soak it up and it will prevent rot. NB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
