Wood preserative
I have a load of wood, previously used in indoor structures, that I am
thinking of recycling into a shed. What's the best thing to treat it with? Prefereably something resistant to being set fire to. Oh, and I read that creosote has been outlawed? TIA. |

Not good if you are fearful of it being set fire to as it's highly flammable. |

Not outlawed, just restricted in various ways. http://www.berr.gov.uk/consumers/fac...page38101.html |
