Question 1

I just finished applying it to a new deck and it appears really dirty where people walk. What do I do?

Accepted Answer

My house is part of a condo association and they applied this product to my deck a few years ago and I couldn't walk on it for six weeks. I finally had the entire deck sanded and Australian Timber Oil applied again by an independent contractor which came out beautifully and was trouble free. I have since applied it myself several times and have never had a problem. It sounds to me that it is not being wiped soon enough after it is applied which will create problems. I like the product and plan to continue using it.

Question 2

There are two versions of this product, one is water clean up, the other is oil based and paint thinner is used for brush clean-up. Which version?

Accepted Answer

The first answer is wrong, you would never use thinner to clean a water based paint, you would obviously use water! Also, I've use the water based product and the oil base product a wet environment didn't find any difference. I believe the water base lasted a little longer and it doesn't have the irritating smell and is easy cleanup.

Question 3

Does the Natural have a matte Finish?

Accepted Answer

I used it on a bench made of smooth sanded ipe (Brazilian Hardwood) bench. It dried to somewhat of a sheen finish which I like.
I have also used it on the bare wood of outdoor tools (shovels, etc) and it dries to the same sheen finish. Takes a while to dry 
but when dried seems very durable, a great product in my opinion.

Question 4

can you confirm color is 'Mahogany Flame' and size is '1 quart'  ?  thanks

Yes, this item is the 1 Quart of Mahogany Flame Australian Timber Oil For Decks & Outdoor Furniture.
