Default Which Decking Stain ?

Hi all - just want some advice on best brand of decking stain to use
..... so many out there ! Also one to do both deck + surrounding rails
etc. All wood is red hardwood - not sure exactly what.
I guess its best to go with an oil type product which soaks into wood
more rather than an acrylic & water base type.
Appreciate any help
Cheers

Hi,

For an oil look at Deks Olje, or for a stain one of the lighter shades
of Sikkens Cetol HLS.

Plenty of info on both via Google.

cheers,
Pete.
