That's what I was thinking. Drop the first coat down, see what it looks like. If I need another, I can zip out and grab another 4L tin whilst the 1s ...
I've finally gotten around to giving the deck a pre-oil clean, now I'm just waiting for it to dry. Considering my deck is just shy of 12 months old, ...
