Afternoon Groovers

Any idea what type of wood treatment would be most appropriate for an old wooden climbing frame please? Thinking lightish colour - the wood has weathered grey in part and could do with a bit of love. I'm thinking oil based and preferably Wickes as it's on the way home and the £50 Screwfix frenzy to get it all together has sapped any highly spendy urges.

I thank you.

Paul

Personally I'd stain it rather than varnish.

Finished treating some garden furniture at the weekend and it looks like new now.

Used http://www.ronseal.co.uk/products/hardwood-garden-furniture-oil

Very happy with the outcome

Maybe the Total wood preserver would suit Pine better??

Thanks fellas - stain it is. I will now go out and buy the wrong one and then have to ride back to Wickes to swap it. Anyone care to take the wager?
