Right you heathens, No more talking about work platforms here!!

 

if you would like to continue discussing work platforms please use the appropriately named thread

 

If I see even the slightest of mention anything that could be used to work higher than you can reach, I will punish you accordingly, 

 

consider yourselves moderated :P

I've read on a number of sites that you can use WD40 or 3 in 1 Oil instead of patination oil.

 

I'd read that as well, although at £10.99 for a litre, I've quite happily gone with patination oil.

 

Following this discussion, I've treated the leadwork.  A light clean to remove debris, dust etc then a coating of oil.  A couple of hours work at most.

Looks much, much better.  Thanks for all the advice.
