The best oil for decks

Timber decks need protection. That is the simple part. When you start looking at all the recommendations for oils it gets complicated. Over the years we have used a number of oils with varying degrees of success. Our final conclusion is that many are quite similar.

Just one is a standout product. OSMO.

Why? Osmo offers three unique properties.

1   Genuinely environmentally sound oil products. Feel free to look up OSMO on the web and you will discover lots of positive comments.

2   Anti Slip oils. The system includes a top coat of 430 anti slip. This surface provides real traction. After all you do walk on the deck when its wet! So a little extra traction is a great idea.

3   Colours. All oils must contain some colour to protect the timber from UV as much as possible. OSMO incorporates subtle colours that assist here. Teak, Oak, Bangkirai & Masaranduba are all great colours.
