    I need to build two decks on my house under construction. I have a small pile of 2x10s left over among other lumber. Are there any good products out there I could use to treat these for use on a deck? One of the decks is fully tucked under a roof with walls. I’m sure I could find another use for the lumber if this isn’t feasible. Just hoping to clean up some space and make use of materials on hand.

    I ended up using raw linseed oil cut with turpentine for a deck a few years back, reapplying every season. It worked okay, though it takes time to dry. I found some decent application brushes and traditional finishes at this shop that helped make the process smoother. Not a permanent solution, but it bought me some years before switching to better wood.
