Clear laquer or varnish for timber decking?
Clear laquer or varnish for timber decking?
Assuming that I can get these silly nails out of the decking see this thread here:
http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...ad.php?t=88710
I want to go away from using just an oil for protecting the timber decking. What I want to use is some kind of clear laquer or varnish.
Yes the Feast and Watson timber decking oil make the timber look very nice, but I want more protection and a cleaner shinny wetter look.
But I have heard that these clear coats can crack, fade, peel, chip and go yellow from the sun and weather conditions etc. I think that there are some poly????? coats that are very good these days?
Can someone offer some advice on my situation.
Oh, here are pics of floor where parts have been sanded. It is spotted gum. I'm hoping a clear will stop it from going that 'grey' colour.
