Both decking oil and colour tone options provide protection and aesthetics, but they serve slightly different purposes.
What is Decking Oil?
Decking oil penetrates the wood to nourish and protect it from moisture, UV rays, and general wear and tear. It helps to prevent cracking, splitting, and warping. Appearance: Decking oil enhances the natural grain and colour of the wood, giving it a rich, warm look. It provides a more natural finish compared to coloured options.
What are the Benefits of Decking Oil?
1. Decking oils bring out the natural beauty of the timber, enhancing its colour and grain.
2. They provide a barrier against harsh weather conditions such as rain and UV rays, preventing the timber from drying, splitting, and warping.
3. Regular application of decking oil extends the lifespan of the deck by keeping the timber nourished and flexible.
What is Colour Tone?
Colour tone options typically include pigments that provide additional UV protection and can help maintain the deck's colour over time. Appearance: Colour tone options offer a range of tinted finishes that can alter the appearance of the timber, providing various shades to complement your outdoor space.
In terms of longevity, both can provide excellent protection if applied and maintained correctly. However, the durability may vary depending on factors such as the quality of the product, the wood species, exposure to elements, and maintenance practices.
