Decking Oil — decking-finish

Bona Decking Oil

Rapid drying and easy to apply, Bona Decking Oil is a modified vegetable based oil for superior impregnation and long-lasting protection of timber decking and other exterior wood surfaces. It enhances the natural wood grain while protecting against moisture ingress. Applied in 1-2 even thin coats, the surface is then buffed lightly to remove excess product and enhance the protection properties.
