    Hahahahaaaaa!!! "Now look, I don't know about you, but I love it when your 'deck' starts to look a bit old and weathered!" As he looks down at himself and feels the need to point to the deck. Now that's Denial! LMBO!!! That was my favorite part of the video. Thank you, Shane. I actually loved the weathered look of the deck, but the oil did seem to bring it back to life! LOL

    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!

    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 👍

      You see a "knacker" here in Ireland is another name for a scumbag. The lowest of the low. If you want to insult someone you'd call them a knacker.
      I've often wondered what Shane means by it? I bet it has a very innocent context and meaning.

    Nice Video Knackers 🇦🇺🍻👍, mate dad joke had me on the ground 😳🧐, not in laughter though 😔🙃😁😁 however me reckons the oil base finish is more conducive to areas near to salt water ?.
    I like the water based finish & I suppose it’s trial & error 🇦🇺🇦🇺🍻🍻🍻👍👍👍👍

    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.

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!

    • @diyforknuckleheads
      @diyforknuckleheads  Рік тому +2

      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 😁

    Nice work, love cutek even here in Canada 🇨🇦 in our harsh winters. Do you remember what colour tone you added to the oil? Or was it just clear coat? Oiling my deck this week again. Second time using cutek, first time was clear with rustic gold added.

    • @diyforknuckleheads
      @diyforknuckleheads  14 днів тому

      Thanks mate.....I didn't add any colour tone....just clear. The only issue with clear is that you need to oil it more often if you want to retain the vibrant colour 👍

    • @diyforknuckleheads
      @diyforknuckleheads  3 роки тому +1

      😂...Cheers Ryno....mate the timber is called Tonka. I love it. It doesn't leach which is awesome so you can have them on your nice exposed ag concrete driveway and you can get a fairly large post that isn't laminated, and cracking is minimal....and l mean minimal! The only drawback is that it's incredibly dense which makes it very heavy and it's like chiseling steel as l found out erecting the deck 😂 Thanks for watching mate 👍😁🇦🇺

    Love the videos. I have a flooring question for you. I have a hardwood floor with double sided carpet tape on that I need to remove. I used to live in the US and we had a product there called Murphy’s Oil Soap that would get it up and not harm the floors. Do you have any recommendations on products here in Australia or a way to safely remove the tape residue? Thanks. Milton

    If I wanted the same finish and color as your deck, what product do I need to buy? I see Cutek has colortone additives and I can’t find a can that says “architectural finish” like yours does. Any help is much appreciated!

    • @diyforknuckleheads
      @diyforknuckleheads  Рік тому

      Mitch...l use Cutek CD50 without adding any colour additive. Just be aware that if you don't add any colour additive the finish will "Grey Off" over the next 12 months which mine does. If you don't like the greying off look you just need to apply another coat. Hope that helps 👍
