General Finishes Outdoor Oil

12 years ago

Looking for anyone who's has experience using General Finishes Outdoor Oil on Mahogany or hardwood decks. Any deck for that matter. I've used the stuff on mahogany railings outdoors and on some furniture with success. I am VERY disappointed in the performance of Cabots ATO. Stuff barely lasts a year. Research on alternatives is very inconclusive. No real standout product out there. Appreciate the inputs. Thanks
