Anyone have a strong preference, or should I just go with whatever the local BORG has on sale?
Refurbing a garden bench, one of those benches with decretive cast iron ends and back. The seat slats are wood, and the metal back is wrapped in wood. The owner purchased the bench at a flea market because it was "rustic" looking, i.e. old and worn. One of the slats finally gave up the ghost, so I was enlisted to take it apart and replace the wooden bits. The metal parts were not very rusted, they cleaned up nicely. I used white oak to make the replacement wood parts and purchased stainless steel fasteners to put it all back together. I primed the metal parts with Rust Doctor, they look good. Now I just need to topcoat the metal parts with a quality outdoor paint, preferably from an easy to use spray can.
