Review: Superb deep-penetrating finish (see photo of gate) - An exceptional oil-based treatment that sinks beautifully into rough-sawn timber, leaving a rich, water-resistant finish without the eye-watering chemical smell of traditional creosote. Because it's oil-based, it actually draws deep into the wood grain rather than just sitting as a film on top, meaning it won’t crack or peel over time. Unlike old-school traditional creosote, the smell is surprisingly mild and dissipates quickly once applied out in the open air. The Light Brown option gives a stunning, natural warmth to the timber that highlights the grain perfectly (as you can see on my finished gate photo). Being an oil-based creocote substitute, it has a very thin, watery consistency. You need to be mindful of drips on surrounding brickwork or paving when applying it. bought this to treat and protect an external timber gate, and the application process was seamless. It goes on incredibly smoothly with a standard fence brush, soaking into the dry wood instantly. It doesn't drag or leave sticky patches like heavy water-based paints sometimes do. It rained shortly after the gate dried, and the water-beading effect on the surface was brilliant. It completely seals the timber against the British elements. If you want proper, long-lasting weather protection for fences, sheds, or gates that keeps the wood looking like real wood, this stuff is top-tier.
Review: Great product - Great product and really easily applied. Great stain all round for sheds and fences

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it smell**
A: Not unpleasant

**Q: How do you clean brushes and equipment**
A: White spirits... but check if this product contravenes local council regulations first. The fumes are VERY powerful and I believe the product is not that good environmentally. I certainly would do any coating job in small steps, not all in one go. Your neighbours will complain.
