    Default Best finish for Kwila deck furniture - undercover

    I've just cleaned up the mould off the kwila deck table and chairs, then coated with Intergrain anti-mould stuff.

    Next it's a case of what to throw on to keep it nice.

    I'm tempted to use Cutek - but it smells for a few weeks, and made the skin on my hands peel off (literally) when I used it without gloves - maybe a little too toxic for my kids to eat off.

    What are people getting good results from?

    Cabots / Feast W decking oil is out - it's browns off too much for my taste.

    Thanx
    Paul

    Why not use the Intergrain finishing oil. If you buy the neutral oil, it gives you a nice natural finish. Easy as to put on. I just give my table and benches one coat every 6 months and it survives the great outdoors very well. Since it is primarily Tree turpentine, its not that toxic either.

    Regards,

    I had heard the natural oils can foster mould.
    It's under cover, but gets blown in rain etc.

    Has anyone seen mould issues with the "Natures Timber Oil"?

    Thanx

    i treat all my outdoor furniture with 2 wet on wet coats of intergrain dimension 4. leave for one day to dry and then coat with a polyurethane finish such as intergrain floortec.
