It`s time to re do my outside wooden decks. I plan to use Thompsons
water seal but don`t know which one is best.
The water base one is cheaper and is easy to clean up----The oil base
one costs more but is more trouble to clean up. Is more expensive
better? Thanks for a reply Herb

None of the above. Check out Penofin oils.


Amen! I used to be a Thompson's fan. Used some Penofin on a
bench two yrs ago -- it is still beading up. No more Thompsons for
me. [the Penofin I used was oil based- maybe they all are. But I put
it on with a rag & throw the rag away- so there isn't any clean-up.]

Same here. Also reformulated Thompson', I believe water based, is crap.
