I have a tin of Wattyl Deck and Furniture Oil which should be suitable
for a fence, and can be touched up easily if necessary.
Otherwise if the fence is H3 Radiata Pine it needs no treatment and
will turn a silver colour.


Thanks for that suggestion. I agree about the "no treatment" policy
(it's all H2 pine), but her indoors has other ideas - she thinks that
attractive silver colour looks old and tired and uncared-for.


Better than tired and uncared for and covered in streaks of ginger
coloured stain, which is how our local park benches look after last
year's makeover.
