I'm in the process of replacing the personnel door on my garage. The frame seems to be fine, although the hardwood cill looks very tatty. It's been painted at some time in the past, although most of that has now flaked off.
Any suggestions for the best treatment to bring the cill back to life, so to speak. Is it a case of sanding down and treating with Sadolin, or is an oil treatment best? I'm a little dubious about oil, coz I've seen oiled wood that is still quite sticky some weeks after the event. Could just be that the wrong sort of oil; was used, of course.
