Nervous God Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Why isn't waxing popular? Or doesn't it protect outdoors enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 A lot depends on the elements, strong sun, hard rain and snow dictate a need for serious wood protection. Waxing would be good if there is no snow involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexi Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I used 4 or 5 thin coats of yaught varnish on a piece of smooth planed timber several years ago and it still looks good despite exposure to sun and rain/snow.Took ages to apply though so to do a whole house could take weeks...

Old Hippie Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 It would not be an easy task, and would have to be done during the dry season...a sprayer would help. The idea is to seal the wood below the surface, then work on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
