Sure, they give the nicest all natural look for your deck but only if you work at it. They tend not last very long in the South African climate and they need regular maintenance. That can mean re-coating every 6 to 12 months or even sooner. If you are prepared to do so then, by all means, treating your deck with a good decking oil such as our Premium version is OK for you and will give you much pleasure.

We have a mould problem on our white colourbond ceiling which we do not want to paint. Do you have a VC175 equivalent which we could spray or paint on directly to the colourbond sheeting? We suggest to clean the area with Mould Action – will work very well! You must remember that it is only a cleaner and not a preventer like the VC175.

I know the benefits of Penetrol in coating and sealing of clean metals and as an additive in paints to protect from salt corrosion. I have just purchased a new boat trailer, and wish to protect the gal. Is penetrol suitable in coating new gal as a protectant? Penetrol can be used over new gal but it needs to be fully degreased first and abraded to insure all the manufacturing oils and chemical treatments have been removed. Penetrol for UV resistance can be over coated with Penetrol Aluminium. Would Pentrol be ok for weild spots on a quad bike from to prevent the weild spots from surface rust? That is… Read More
