Bulk deck oil?

[markocosic]

I have a fence / deck that wants oiling again. (Cambridge this time)

 

 

When first built I used this to try avoid rot::

And this to try keep it dry:

The biocide/fungicide emulsion (5 star wood treatment) should still be ok.

 

The oil wants redoing. The Screwfix stuff was spendy for what smells a lot like straight naptha.

 

Anybody used bulk alternatives?

 

 

Google suggets:

Whose Amazon listing suggests it's a replacement for texnap

 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/CEDAR-CLADDING-OIL-LITRE-CLEAR/dp/B01G3WXFN2

https://colthouses.co.uk/colt-built/cedar-oil-texnap-22/

 

And the Texnap description says...non toxic naptha...aha

https://www.lubricantsupplies.co.uk/buy-texaco-texnap-22-x-208-litres.html

 

But related Amazon listings show this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Decking-Clear-Finish-Guard-Litre/dp/B08R3ZFRFK/ref=pd_lpo_2?pd_rd_i=B08R3ZFRFK&psc=1

 

Which leads to this at around £1.50/litre

(plus £7 a bucket if you're not from Darlington and would like it delivering; so just over £2/litre; or £50 for quite a lot once you're at pallet quantity)

 

Know of anything better?

 

 

Creosote is also still available to the pros! ?
