I would like to point out that this wood preserver will not be

suitable for every application, I do not recommend you use it

for internal wood treatment, although outbuildings should be

fine.

When I moved to France from the U.K. a lot of things took time

to understand. The language, the habits of the locals, opening

hours of shops etc, etc. Once you integrate into the society you

live in, you can quickly benefit from the experience of people

who know all sorts of things. The following is just one of the

many new things I am discovering daily.

In France, particularly in rural areas, the amount of land

everybody has can be quite substantial. Most people still keep

livestock, even if it’s just a few chickens. Wood is still a very

widely used resource and commonly used in preference to metal

or to keep property in line with the surroundings.

As the French are also very keen on recycling, or in fact you

could say “they will re-use absolutely anything if they can” and

they do. They have been using this free resource for years.

WASTE ENGINE OIL.  Yes, believe it or not the dirty oil that you

get from any oil change, car, motorbike, truck etc makes a truly

effective wood preserver. I have painted stacks of wooden planks

for fencing with a paintbrush and waste engine oil.

Admittedly it only comes in black and is really only practical

for using on fences and outside wood, but when it soaks in to

timber it gives a rustic look and makes it weather proof for

years.

The best part is it’s free. If you can only use your own oil

when you do an oil change that should be at least 3-4 litres

If not more. Most garages in the U.K. have to pay for the waste

oil they produce to be disposed of so most garages won’t have a

problem giving it away to you.

I highly recommend wearing overalls, rubber gloves and put

whatever it is you are treating on a plastic sheet. It’s messy!
