Has anyone used this product on IPE or similar exterior deck Hardwood. How does it compare to IPE Oil ?
I don’t know what IPE is, but I LOVE this product on my pretreated deck and gazebo. I won’t use anything else. Beautiful finish

It says for hardwoods , will it work on ipe ?
It should. Use clear one and I would try on small area to see whether it darkens or not. It should not on good quality wood.

We have stained our deck with the timber oil. Can we put a varnish overtop to protect the stain so we aren’t staining every year
varnish is not going to bond because of oil. we put timber oil and even after winter looks very good (best product so far)

Great Product
I re-finished a deck that was dark grey and black from mold, dirt and neglect. I scrubbed it clean so it looked like wood again and applied Cabots Australian Timber Oil Jarrah Brown to the floor, seats and top plate on rail, I painted the rail slats to match house color. This was in 2011 yikes today I have started scrubbing the deck and will re- apply the same stain again, it probably should have been done a bit sooner but it has been 7 yrs. and this deck was not in great shape to begin with but I really think ATO saved my deck.. The photo is of it being washed and how it looked after over 7 yrs of Iowa weather. It will look new when I'm done again.

Stained the deck
Did all the required prep and used a non-air commercial sprayer to apply. Went on smoothly and dried completely in 48 hours.Over sprayed many plants. Rinsed off what I could and only had a few leaves, no plants, that died. Sprayed steel anti-slip grid and dried in 12 hours. Sprayed the anodized aluminum rails to preserve the color and after 4 weeks they are still tacky. The wood has a slight orange tint, but the wood grain shows excellently. I asked for clear and was sold the #9400 Australian timber oil (natural). I'd purchase again and recommend to anyone, except for the anodized aluminum.

Disappointing
I've used Cabot Australian Timber Oil #9458 stain on my deck starting in 2008. Super durability and very satisfied. After 8 years it needed staining again. I was forced to use the same product but different chemical make up. (#19548) In 2017 I had it redone again because I had replaced some boards. Enter 2019 and it needs to be stained again! I did the required steps in prepping it every time it has been done. Not very durable! And a very disappointing product.
I will offer a word of advice to others, Spraying or rolling may be quick but brushing is the best way to apply it to a deck surface especially if you have gaps between your boards.

Easy to apply and looks great
I used the Honey Teak color of this stain on a pergola I built behind my New Orleans home. The lumber is simple pressure treated pine which I sanded with 120 grit sandpaper before I applied the stain. This is the first time I ever used any kind of stain so I used a lambswool applicator for best results. I was careful to wipe it repeatedly with the applicator to even the application out and take up any excess. I found it took about three days before the stain was fully cured and no longer tacky. I couldn't be happier with the results. I can't imagine why anyone uses cedar or other premium price wood when this stain makes pine look so good !

Dissapointed..Has been my "go to" for years
I have been appyling the Cabot Australian Oil "honey teak" for 11 years on my deck applying once every 2-3 years. Very easy to apply and great water resistance with water "beading" when it rains. Have been buying from Lowe's in Burlington ON Canada during this time. Last application was in early summer 2018, winter 2019/2020 was not overly harsh here and very dissapointed at the peeling that I have never seen with this stain over the years. I do not use my deck in the winter ie: no shovelling or scraping of ice etc. What changed? Now I have no idea what brand and or type of stain to use next. I would question using this again.

Color, Finish, Stains are not what I was expecting
Bought this weekend to apply to a new deck installed late spring. Used a pad applicator for the first coat and every single spot I lifted the applicator left a dark mark, and other dark sections. Some sections barely took any color and stayed light. The Honey Teak is about 10 shades darker than the sample on pine. The finish is almost a like a urethane you would see on a wooden bartop from the 80's. Upon applying a second coat, there were areas the stain wasn't able to soak in and let what looks like droplets. It's absolutely horrible. Bob Vila's site promoted this as the best option for a new deck and I couldn't be any more disappointed.

Rich, Deep Color
I am very happy I used the Australian Timber Oil, Honey Teak color, for my new deck. At first the color seemed darker than I expected, but now that it's done, I really like it. It has a rich, deep, burnished, and expensive look and also a nice sheen. My deck is 17x19 and 2nd floor, so I had railing, stairs, and underneath to do also, and I used exactly 5 gallons. I expected to use 2 gallons based on the stated 400-600 square foot coverage, so I guess my wood really soaked it up. I waited 5 months after building to apply it.

Poor results
I sanded my pressure treated deck down to remove all prior stain/water repellant product. Power washed it to remove the grit and dust. Let the wood dry for 3 days and then applied Jarrah Brown Australian Timber Oil as recommended. While wet it looked fine but after drying it was blotchy and after going through a winter it is dull. It does repel water nicely. I am extremely disappointed after going to all the time and trouble of sanding the deck to have it turn out like this. I would not recommend this product. Any suggestions on how to fix the blotchy appearance would be greatly appreciated.
