Default Sikkens vs. Ronseal exterior on a hot ledge

I've got iroko timber around my south facing aluminium windows that
I've just sandpapered off the old mahogany coloured varnish. It's a
hot ledge when the sun is glaring at it (as it is today).

The Ronseal is much easier to use, fast drying (you could do 3 coats
in a day if pushed) and you can rinse out the brushes in water.
- I will carry on using Ronseal in the future!


Hmmm... I now have a dent in my keyboard where my head just hit it.


I have used Sadolin extra which, while fine for sawn finish wood, is
very short lived on sealed pine windows: particularly the
horizontals/sills.
