Hi all,
I'm sure this has probably been discussed before but I'm still in the dark. I have just been looking at wood preserver to use on garden furniture and all the ronseal type products I saw had warnings about having high levels of VOC's (Volotile Organic Compounds) which apparently cause atmospheric polution. That does not sound very nice to me so I am looking for an eco-friendly alternative. I know you can use bees wax on indoor furniture but what about outdoors? I imagine any natural dark oil wood do the job but I dont want to slap it on and mess it up. Maybe linssed oil??
Anyway love to hear your ideas,
Mick
