Anyone used it? any comments on particular brands?

I got some a couple of years ago (ISTR it was from Wickes - green
container with white writing) - looks like creosote, smells like
creosote (ish), brushes like creosote and seems to weather like
creosote too - certainly better than the water-based "modern" stuff
that my neighbour used, which seems to be fading severely over the
same sort of period. I don't know how well it protects from rot
though, as I used it on pressure-treated timber :-)

I'll second all of the above. (Doesn't smell quite as strong, though)
