How to oil your deck

Before you start

Before you start, choose a warm, dry day (above 10C) and clear the deck. Make sure your deck is completely dry.

New decks

  • Most new decks come with a bit of waterproofing protection. This could stop the oil from soaking in properly. To avoid this, give your new deck a good scrub with our Decking Cleaner & Reviver. Once scrubbed, throw some water on the deck and see if it beads. If it doesn't, it's ready for the oil. If it does, you'll have to clean it again until the water stops beading. Allow the wood to thoroughly dry before applying the oil. Make sure you waterproof any freshly cut deck ends using Ronseal Decking End Grain Protector

Untreated, Weathered & Grey Decks

  • Our decking oil will look much better on a nice clean deck, so use our Decking Restorer to take it back to its natural colour.

Previously Treated Decks

  • If your deck has been painted or stained, use our Decking Stripper to get it back to bare wood. If your deck has been previously oiled, don't try to cover a dark oil with a lighter colour. You'll need to strip it first using our Decking Stripper.

Application

Decking Oil needs to be applied in dry conditions when the forecast is clear of rain and frost.

  1. Give the can a shake continuously for a couple of minutes.
  2. Pour the oil into a suitable container and dip in your brush or applicator pad.
  3. Check you're happy with the colour. Find a small, hidden patch of wood and try it. Remember, the shade label is only an indicator of the colour.
  4. Start in the furthest corner, brushing along the length of the boards. Work on 3-4 boards at a time so you don't get any overlap marks. You'll need to put on 2 coats.
  5. Leave 20 minutes between each coat.
  6. After 24 hours, you'll be able to get your furniture out and use the deck.

Aftercare

Clean Up

Wipe as much oil off your brush or pad as you can. Then wash it out in warm, soapy water. Don't empty any leftover oil into drains or watercourses. Your local authority may have special ways to get rid of unused oils.

Maintenance

Our Quick Drying Decking Oil will keep your deck protected and looking great all season long. When the colour begins to fade, simply clean the deck using Ronseal Decking Cleaner & Reviver, leave the deck to dry and then recoat with your Quick Drying Decking Oil.
