It is a mistake to sand a deck with fine sandpaper, especially with a power sander. This actually seals the grain of the wood and prevents oil from fully penetrating into the wood. I would us nothing finer than a 100 grit. Many manufactures of deck finishes would say nothing finer than 80 grit.I do agree with using an oil finish, rather than any of the water based products. this is imperative with the harder decking woods such as ipe or mahogany.

@isitlaw2919 4 месяца назад

Correct , I use 50 grit light pressure and BAMB! DONE and it works well !

Great video thanks Shane. Quick Q... I watched ur deck build and noticed you offset each screw on a diagonal on the joist rather than a straight line. First time I've seen it in a deck video. Was there a special reason for that? Cheers mate. Love your channel.

@diyforknuckleheads 3 года назад

Thanks Jamie and great question as well. Offsetting the screws minimises the risk of creating a crack along the screw line. Imagine all the screws in one line.....it just encourages a crack to form which water can get into and rot the joist.....hope that makes sense 👍👍....Plus, l reckon the staggered screw pattern looks heaps better. Thanks for watching mate 👍😁🇦🇺

Great stuff, probably wouldn't sand to such a high grit, 80-120 so the oil actually "penetrates into the deck" 😌 Also, if you didn't clean all the grey out and just clear coated.. with a penetrative oil like the cutek, the grey is meant to return!

@shaneelson 3 года назад

Love that Cutek oil. I'm right in the middle of redecking the back deck and recycling some of the boards onto a new 'retreat' area. Gunna flip the old decking boards and hit 'em with the sander before laying them and oiling. We clad part of the front and back of the house with horizontal bamboo, 135mm deck boards, 20mm spacing, in front of black painted cement sheet (with a 3mm spacer running vertical on every stud). The east side gets washed and re-oiled every 12 months. The west side, every six (we're about 500 metres from Westernport Bay, looking towards the Mornington Peninsula so that side cops all the weather). The back takes about an hour to do and twice that when I wash it (once a year). The east side, front, takes twice that long and gets washed every couple of years (when the spider population gets outa control 🤣🤣). The deck is a two day affair if the weather is OK and the dog isnt digging holes and deciding to show us his treasures 🤣🤣 I just enjoy looking at how the oil makes everything pop. Great job Shane. I know your pain re. 'tennis elbow' except mine is 'softball shoulder' 🤣🤣😷. Sit back, enjoy a 🍺 and admire your handy work 👍

G'day Ben....yeah l love the grey look as well but in an effort to extend the life of the timber l needed to re-coat it. When l built it, l oiled it. It needs doing every year or so which really isn't a very big job and it looks good. I'm actually about to redo all the decks in a week or so....just in time for summer. Cheers 😁

@jamessunjaya21 Месяц назад

Knackers when you first oiled it did you do the underside also? I oiled one of my decks (top only) and the boards cupped (130mm spotted gum), then on another deck with same timber I didn’t oil it at all and didn’t get any cupping. Wondering if I oiled both now would I get the same colour and would it encourage any cupping. Both of mine are unroofed unlike yours.

Hi Shane. I'm trying to figure out why the oil based needs to be redone more often than the water based...I thought it would be the reverse. Have you had to re-apply the oil since?

@diyforknuckleheads 19 часов назад

Hi Juliet....correct, water based does last longer on the surface as far as far as looks goes. Oil in my opinion does soak in better than a water based product. If you add a tint to your oil based product the look will last last longer than if just added a clear oil....if you know what l mean 🤔 I used to oil mine every two years but have recently let it go as l like the look of the greyed out beachy finish.

Looks like forest reds.

@diyforknuckleheads 3 года назад

It's called Tonka mate. I love it! It doesn't leach and is very stable. Incredibly dense and heavy and l love the fact that you can get a sizeable out of it without having to go for the laminated posts. As you can see from the video, it's been down for almost 5 years and still looks awesome 👍👍 Thanks for watching 👍🇦🇺😁

@cryptoknight8606 3 года назад

@@diyforknuckleheads Of course it's Tonka, I ''knew'' it was Tonka, all I said was it 'looks like forest reds'', didn't say it WAS forest reds, just that it looked like it...but I knew it was Tonka all along, honest I did'' (not)lolol

No it didn't mate. I was careful not to splash to much of the cleaner onto them 👍

Haha mate you're a legend! I just found your channel :D I started my channel only a few months ago and have a video about how to get decking oil and all that Cabot's cleaner for free if you're interested. It was one of my very first videos so it's not very good lol. I could indeed take a lesson from you on how to pump out shorter videos that's for sure. But it's all a learning experience. Anyway you have another follower. Cheers mate!

I put my deck oil on waaaaay to heavily -(should've seen your video beforehand), what can I do to clean off the excess oil that hasn't absorbed? Thank you in advance.
