Fiddes Decking Oil

Fiddes Decking Oil works by deeply penetrating the wood fibres, nourishing and protecting the wood from the inside out. It enhances the natural colour and grain of the wood while forming a protective barrier that helps repel moisture and UV damage.

Fiddes Decking Oil is suitable for use on a variety of exterior wood types, including softwoods like pine and cedar, as well as hardwoods like teak and oak. It can be applied to both new and previously treated wood surfaces.

The frequency of application depends on various factors such as the level of foot traffic, weather exposure, and the quality of the original application. As a general guideline, it's recommended to reapply Fiddes Decking Oil every 1 to 2 years to maintain the wood's protection and appearance. However, it's essential to monitor the condition of the wood and reapply as needed.
