2.5 / 5(10 reviews)Mike Windle - 1 / 5 - 01/03/2021
Did nothing it said on the tin.
I opted for this product because the applicator looked very handy to save the back and knees. The finish I got from it was disgraceful as the pile isn't deep enough to reach into the groves on the decking. The coverage with the applicator is also very uneven on flat surfaces. The oil itself applied with a brush is not bad but the claim that it covers 10 square meters with 2 coats is purely fiction. I had to buy another 2.5l to finish the job and when applied with a brush the finish is alright.

Horrid finish
On opening container liquid seemed fine. Starting applying with applicator and had completed around 10 boards when realised I was getting large lumps of oil coming out on deck. I stopped and examined the remaining oil to discover a complete mass of gooey lumps impossible to mix. Tried my best to smooth out and continue due to consistency ran out. When looking back now realised deck had become two different colours. As I was using natural oil this was ridiculous as the first half was natural and second half was cream. Left to dry in hope all would even out but unfortunately it did not. Next day to to power wash the entire deck again. Never had this problem with rinses again but deck was such a mess I would never buy it again.

Excellent product, rubbish applicator, over-priced
...bought this, 2.5 litres with applicator, for £40. The applicator was very easy to assemble but was useless at applying the product to the decking. The pile on the pad was way too short so was difficult to get into the grooves of the decking boards and it soon became compressed and clogged up, thus making it even shorter. The 2.5 litres just about covered the decking area (approximately 12sqm) but nowhere near enough to apply a second coat. Had to buy a second 2.5 litre tin to finish the job. This time bought the one without an applicator, for £6 less (again from B&Q). Applied the second coat by brush. This went on much better, although took a lot longer and was much harder work. It was worth it though, as this method also used about half as much of the product. I would recommend applying by brush. Forget about the applicator, it's rubbish! Also, don't buy at this price, I have since seen exactly the same thing online at less than £30 for 5 litres!!!!

good product, but it's a better finish with a brus
Just applied it for the second year. Prepped with a pressure washer - which left the surface a little rough in places and patchy in colour. Did a bit of sanding until my knees hurt too much. The oil evened out the colour and surface texture. Which is great. I ditched the applicator for a 4inch brush. The brush worked much better. Harder on the knees/back with all the bending down, but much easier to get an even coat. Even coating is the key to getting a good finish. If the oil pools in screw holes or foams when applied vigorously (or with a sponge) it looks a bit rubbish when dry. Overall - great product, but get the basic tin without the applicator, then a couple of brushes and trays... as it's water based they can be washed and reused anyway.

Not enough in a tub!
Good finish, but the tub does not cover anywhere near as big an area as it says it should! Also the brush that comes with it is difficult to use and does not glide smoothly across the decking.

Applicator Useless for Grooved Decking
The applicator is a waste of time when using on grooved decking - need to use a brush to get in the grooves. I also struggled to assemble some components of the handle; whilst some slotted together easily, others would not engage fully, which then made the applicator difficult to use. When the pad came off, I gave up.

Oil good applicator hopeless
If your decking has shallow this would be a good buy but thr groves on mine were too deep for the pad to cover the bottom of the groves with the oil. I used a brush for the second coat

does what is says on the tub!
well although extremely expensive this product was easy to apply with the broom/pad supplied although must admit I had snapped the first handle within 15 minutes but found the pad very good and easy to use as long as you used enough product to soak into all the grooves - took about 1.5 hours to do one coat on decking 2 metres by 4 metres - would buy again.

doesn't really do what it says on the tin...
The oil itself is fine, but the applicator is a waste of time. I had to press hard to reach the bottom of the grooves and the pad started disintegrating halfway through. I ended up using a brush which was actually much easier.

Not as quick and easy as it appears
Its not cheap to purchase, but I took the cost hit on the basis this product would give a quick even finish using the 'Perfect finish decking pad'. Unfortunately the pad itself is not contoured to actually fit the grooves, instead you have to apply quite a bit of pressure in use to squash it into the deck board and get the oil into those grooves. This works to a point initially, but the pressure required to get the coverage into the grooves degrades and flattens the fluffiness of the pad in time. I ended up using a brush to even out the oil and get into those grooves. This slowed the whole process down. A pad of firm brush like bristles would work much better Ronseal! The handle is a good design and sturdy enough. The oil itself soaks in nicely and makes the softwood deck I biult look nice and natural. Too early to say on protection levels. Would I buy the applicator again? No, not at nearly £40 a tub; its just not quick and convenient enough to use.
