Ronseal wet rot wood hardener is much more effective and works within

*Any* wet rot wood hardener.

The quick ones are all styrene monomer.

Has anyone found they provide a long lasting repair?

My theory is if you have 'cheap' wood that is prone to rot and the rot has
started, fixing a bit of it doesn't stop it happening in short order
elsewhere.

I have a window where the sill started to go about 6 or 7 years ago, I cut
out the bad bit, used wood hardener and did what I thought was a decent
repair. The rest of the sill has now decided to give up, so I'm having a
new window fitted. The original was early 1970s Magnet. (before we bought
the house)
