Currently creating a small area of decking - nothing fancy, just to make an area nicer to put table and chairs on than coarse gravel. The sun hits that area before coming round to the back garden. So mainly a morning coffee place!

Construction not yet complete.

I'd like some suggestions for treatment. Not keen on bright colours. Nor dark browns/blacks. And I don't really want shiny.

Plus, really needs to be readily available (we have Wickes, Homebase, Screwfix, Wilko, B&M and some specialist paint shops.)

Clear decking oil. Not stain. If it says on the can that you can wash
brushes in water, don't buy it!

Thank you Dave.

I have reached that point - nice to have it confirmed.

Any suggestions as to the best value? Probably only need 2.5L for now.

Wilko or Screwfix No Nonsense.
