I've got a nice oak slat park bench that I pulled from the trash and fixed up with stainless fasteners and new wood a few years ago. The problem now is mildew affecting the oak.
Originally I covered the wood with something called ClearThane (from a "Wood You" store) which I assume is a thinner version of polyurethane which works well on indoor furniture.
I would like some help with the next restoration. Besides the mildew the wood is still good, so I'd like to use it, although I would guess teak, cypress or cedar might be better.
My plan it to sand down the mildew and recoat it with something. With what I don't know. I'm open to suggestions. Help appreciated.
Thanks, Stan
