    Hi there Charles. I have just bought a can of Osmo wood protector for use on the scaffold boards that I’m going to build my raised beds with.In one of your replies to a fellow forum contributer you say that on your raised bed timbers you applied just 2 coats of preserver and that was several years ago.My question is – did you apply the preserver wet on wet or did you let the first coat dry.Best of luck with your new project. Honesty.

    I used that a couple of years ago, allowed the first coat to dry before applying the second.

    The wood is still looking good, it’s a great product!
