Common situations
Application needs to follow the product’s coverage and handling instructions. More oil does not automatically mean better protection, and excess can affect the surface. Discuss the agreed area and product quantity so the work is planned around the actual deck rather than a guessed number of cans.
The timber needs to accept the proposed product in the way its instructions require. Glossy residue, uneven wear or previous treatment can change absorption. Photos support planning, but an on-site suitability check may still be needed before the application method is confirmed.

Planning the work

Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
