Default Patio set deck chairs are finished

Hi Gang,
Just finished up the set of chairs for the deck. They are finished with Sikkens stain one coat Cetol 1 and one coat Cetol 23 Cedar. I dont plan on bringing them in for the winter they should weather well I think. This is the first thing I have done for myself ( Well really for the good lady) for many a year. She is pretty happy with them and if nothing else they will be a conversation piece.The last two pictures are on the next post.
Colin

Great faces. I'd lock them down if your leaving them out as they would be quite a catch for a University dorm or some other pranksters nearby. You indicated the two types of coating. Is this the different levels of your sealer?

Yes Patrick Sikkens comes in Cetol 1 and Cetol 23. When I asked the people at Sikkens about it they said it was quite simple. I means first coat and 23 means second and third coat. The first coat is a sealer and other two coats are the finish coats. I may put a third coat on them yet I will see.

Colin- that's quite the set of deck chairs-they wil look great out on the deck,and should provide quite a conversation piece(set)

patrick-forget about the college students i would drive to Thorton,and pick them up myself.
