Thread: Finishing Question - top coats are making my head spin

Hi all,
I have scoured the web about posts about decking stains and oils and was wondering about a few things as I am new to this game.
My deck is Yellow Balau, and is 580 lineal meters. It is still in packs in my garage as I haven't found the right product to use yet. I was going to use a 2 part product called UltraSeal. My father used it on his deck and looked great, clear and brought out the natural look of the wood with no tinting. Great! Exactly what I wanted until he notced it was peeling after 7months in direct sun. Now I am uncertain on what to use.

Our deck is half in the sun and half under cover. The Balau has been sitting for quite some time in a warehouse. The planks are 120 x 22.

I also have kwila 140x140 posts that need to be done also.
I have been looking at Intergrain Ultradeck or DWD, Spa&Deck or Organoil as a oil.
I have read many options on this site and other sites but would like real time experiences with these products. I understand that the Organoil needs to be applied more often and dont mind this, I am really after a look over than longevity. I dont mind doing it 2 time a year but... if I didn't have too it would be great too.

From what I have read Sikkens is going to darken the planks which is not what I want as I selected this particular wood because of the colour range. I like the planks looking different and not smooth consistant colour. This is why I dont want to tint the finish.

2 others that I have heard mention of are Quantum and Haymes Dexpress. Anyone?

Thanks for your time,
