I know there are all sorts of preservatives in B&Q etc for painting on

a plastic coating. I am basing my enquiry on the basis of thinking most
of the bog standard preservatives are so enviromentally friendly they
probably are not really much good.

Any thoughts or ideas on this.


The metal ground spikes are the total solution. Can be a problem to
drive in some ground.
