Deck Castle

Question

This Deck Castle is 12 years old. The floor and hand rail is Cambara, grill cabinet Mahogany, the rest is western red cedar. Pergola's are one year old. This was the third major re-do with 2 floor maintenances in between .

With out a doubt and with my extensive knowledge with caring and maintaining hardwoods. Cambara is the the finest of the bunch.

This was one of the very first hardwoods done with Ready Seal. Lots of experimenting at the time. The oil sank to the bottom of the other side of the Cambara the first time. Man hours-45 to 50 and approx 25 to 30 gallons of oil. First application 25 gallons went into the floor.

Thanks for the reply, what was the application method(s)?

So all the spindles and lattice only took about 5 gallons?

No, this time the whole thing took 25 to 30 gallons. First application was 12 years ago for which 25 went into the floor. Sprayed lattice, pergola , spindles and did the rest by lambswool /brushes. They park a camper under that deck. Lots of plastic used! 3 10 by 100 rolls.
