Overview

Overview

Back

Ronseal Decking Oil nourishes and protects your decking. The natural oils stop your deck from splitting and greying, keeping it looking its best throughout the season. It's ready for the second coat in just 20 minutes.

NOTE: This product is not compatible with the now discontinued solvent-based Ronseal Decking Oil.

Preparation

Preparation

Back

Decked areas to be treated should be clean, dry and free from all traces of dust, dirt, oil, grease, wax and silicone.

New Decking Preparation

For all bare wood decking, including tanalised, pressure treated and preservative impregnated decking timbers.

New Softwood Decking

  1. Treat with Clear Ronseal Total Wood Preservative (as this is wax-free) for the best protection. (The coloured versions contain wax which will cause adhesion problems)
  2. If possible, preserve all sides including end grain prior to installation with Ronseal Decking End Grain Protector
  3. Sweep the decking with a stiff broom to remove all traces of surface dirt and debris
  4. Use a suitable decking cleaner if required before oiling

New Hardwood Decking

Hardwood decking usually requires a period of weathering to allow the surface grain to open up. This allows for better absorption of the oil. Check the decking manufacturer's guidance on how long it should be left to weather before applying Ronseal Decking Oil.

Old Decking Preparation

Old 'coating' type finishes, such as decking paints, varnishes, and coating type stains must be fully removed back to bare wood before oiling. Depending on the condition and type of finish, it may require more than one attempt to fully remove the old coating.

  1. Ensure that all 'coating' type finishes have been fully removed to expose bare wood by either jet washing or using a decking stripper such as Ronseal Decking Stripper
  2. Clean old oil-based decking treatments thoroughly with Ronseal Decking Cleaner and Reviver
  3. Then treat as 'New Decking' above

Application

Application

Back

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times. Do not apply in damp conditions, when rain is likely, or in temperatures below 10°C. You should also ensure your deck is completely dry.

  1. Shake the tin thoroughly before pouring the entire contents into a suitable container.
  2. Apply with a suitable decking brush or other decking applicator
  3. Start in the furthest corner, brushing along the length of the boards
  4. Treat 3-4 decking boards at a time to avoid overlap marks
  5. Allow 20 minutes drying time between each coat
  6. Apply an even second coat as above
  7. After 24 hours, you'll be able to get your furniture out and use the deck

Regular Cleaning

To preserve the oiled finish for longer, we recommend that wooden decking is swept with a stiff broom on a regular basis to remove loose leaves, dirt, and other organic matter. This prevents a build up of organic matter that can settle on the deck and in the grooves, which can degrade and damage the finish and decking timbers over time.

Deep Cleaning

Scuff marks, stains, grease and other surface contaminates can be cleaned with a suitable decking cleaner prior to re-oiling.

Maintenance

Inspect the finish on an annual basis and apply a fresh coat of oil as and when required.

Q. How long does Ronseal Quick Dry Decking Oil last?

A. As with any decking oil, there is no way to specify how long it will last as it depends on how much wear it gets, how much weathering it receives and also the type and condition of the decking it's applied to. This said, decking oils are very easy to apply and maintain so when it does start to look a little worn or tired, a thin maintenance coat is all that is needed to make the decking look like new again.

Q. Is Ronseal Decking Oil sprayable?

A. Ronseal do not recommend spraying this product.

It was as described and fairly easy to apply
I applied two coats over a couple of days. It dried well and appears to be providing weather protection. As I’ve never had decking before I have nothing to compare it with,

Protects the decking well although I wouldn't say it lasts as long as Ronseal claim that's why I revarnish my decking annually, price creeping up and up though.

Used on fence and it is great
Used this on garden fence which now looks like new. Few days after it rained and the water just ran off, result. In other words it does exactly what it says. Glad I bought two tins though as the fence was ‘thirsty’.
