Roxil Wood Preserver Clear (5L) Odourless Pre-Treatment Wood Preservative Against Dry Rot, Wet Rot, Fungal Attack and Woodworm. Solvent Free, Ready to Use, for Outdoor Fence, Decking & Shed

Plenty left

So Moving house and had a load of C24 timber left stored for 7 years. It was a bit grubby from leaf litter, but I salavaged it by washing it in a bit of washing up liquid in hot water, scrubbing it and light rinse with hose. Stand against a wall and let sun dry it. I then added product to a bucket, stood the ends in and used the brush to brush it on half way. It dried in 90 minutes and I flipped the wood and reapplied. The rough fence posts really drink this stuff up. So I treated 11 rough flat c24 1.8m boards, 10 x 75cm x 75cm rough fench posts and still have a bit left. Looks great and pretreatment means I can use a coloured wood presever over the top. TBH wood looks new again. Thee is a slight odor but not that strong and good quality and value for money. My pergola can be built at my new home.

Good product

I had to use it on an external structural beam of around 12” x 16” that had been infested with wood boring bugs and wood lice due to a leaking roof onto it and one end being exposed. It’s about 4 m long. I did all the 7 joists coming off it which are 6 feet long and 3” x 5”. I used all the 5L. For large parts of the main structural beam there were large voids and I wanted to soak the wood. Of If I had done 3 normal coats there would be another 2.5L left. But by soaking I know I stopped the infestations. I wore a proper mask and gloves and no problems. I would say it does smell slightly and when painting it on smooth wood it does dry well and quickly. I applied with a good brush with good holding ability, not a cheap brush that won’t hold liquid well. As this is not like paint, it’s more of a liquid. I applied in 20 degree heat and allowed 5 days for it to dry due to the amount I had saturated with. But the flat parts did dry as per the manufacturers instructions, I think 48 hours after doing the 3 coats 2 hours apart. I fixed the roof so didn’t need to use the manufacturers waterproofing cream.

Very good product, I really like the Roxil range of products. Easy to use, highly recommended 👍

Because this is transparent I have no idea if I'm going over the same patch multiple times could have a little tint I feel to stop this happening.

Came quickly and happy with this item.

Used to coat some softwood sleeper garden furniture. A little goes a very long way. Easy to apply. Brushes clean off in soapy water. I'll update this to comment on its effectiveness in a couple of years time! My only gripe is the container. It doesn't pour cleanly and it's difficult to avoid spillage, particularly when it's near full.
