Default Preserve wood trailer deck

The wood deck on my heavy duty 5th wheel trailer hasn't had anything

"The Kid" tells me to put a good heavy coat of used motor oil on the
two inch planks and let it weather. Good idea? better suggestions? The
trailer cost $7K and I'd like the deck to last.


For a nicer application, you can buy a pail of mistinted deck oil from
Home Depot. Redo it every 2 years.
