A little goes a long way with this stuff if you work it in properly. Dries quite quickly and repels moisture. Looks nice and brings out the wood grain and colour. Quite pricey, but worth it for the results!

First time I have used this product. I am very impressed with the finish and ease of use. I watched a few YouTube videos and adapted the application methods used. In the end I made a rubber like french polishing, I left it at least a day between coats. Wear protective gloves.

As someone who spent their childhood yacht varnishing our boat's deck at the end of every summer this stuff took me right back. I recently had a horrible time trying to work with some water based product on a small greenhouse as it just didn't handle properly and the second coat went cloudy despite drying between coats, I ended up sanding it back and thought I'd have to go to a chandlers to buy some under the counter, non EU approved oil based product. Bought this instead, it doesn't smell too bad and doesn't seem to be full of nasties.For people unused to real oil based yacht varnish you might find it strange to work with. It's runny and spreads. Just go lightly with the grain and don't over apply it, I only needed two thin coats and my greenhouse looks like new despite taking a battering over the last 5 years.Still got half a tin left, depending how it looks at the end of summer I may give it another coat but so far it looks tough and well protected. It dries almost clear with a soft sheen, might do my front door too as a little goes a long way.Wish I'd bought this first. Whomever came up with the idea of water based yacht varnish has obviously never tried using the stuff. This, by comparison, works, whether for your yacht deck, greenhouse or anything else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product for protecting exterior wood

Its never cheap to choose OSMO but the product works better than anything else I have used. It protects exterior oak for several years from fading, going silver or simply rotting. I have used it for about 10 years for different projects and as long as I refresh it every 3 years or so it does exactly what the label says. To refresh all you need to do is lightly sand it down, take out any signs of damage or "greying" and then brush over, you do not need to remove all the previous layers of OSMO - I apply 2 coats to the surfaces that will be in direct sunlight as UV is the killer for good quality exterior oak. Great for exterior oak doors, house signs, garden tables etc.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for a shed.

It's very thin so drips everywhere.

Happy so far!

Price was a little on the higher side for the quantity, but if I don't need to re apply every year than it's money well spent! Let's hope I don't need to do it again!
