Garden Sleeper Oil Treatment

Whether you have brand new or reclaimed sleepers, treating them with a high-quality wood treatment will not only enhance their appearance but also increase their lifespan. Our garden sleeper treatment helps protect the wood from weathering and rot. Our Rubio Monocoat hydrophobic WoodCream is a highly effective and long lasting product, providing a water-repellent layer to prevent water from penetrating the wood.

If your sleeper is oak, or any other wood, our exterior sleeper treatment will work at reducing the risk of micro-organism growth due to its self-cleaning technology. This will save you the time and effort of frequently having to clean your sleepers.

Rubio Monocoat oil molecularly bonds with the wood fibres in garden sleepers, forming a durable, water-repellent layer that protects against rain, UV rays and temperature changes. This protective shield helps prevent rotting, cracking and fading caused by outdoor exposure. Because the finish bonds to the surface rather than forming a thick film, it stays flexible and won’t peel, keeping sleepers strong and looking great with just one coat.

Garden and railway sleepers are constantly exposed to the elements, meaning moisture, sun and frost can quickly cause fading, splitting and decay. Treating them creates a protective barrier that stops water soaking in and shields against weather damage. Regular treatment helps preserve the sleepers’ strength and colour, keeping them attractive, long-lasting and easier to maintain in any landscaping project.

Yes - Rubio Monocoat adds colour and protection to garden sleepers in a single layer. By bonding with the wood fibres, it delivers a rich, even colour that enhances the grain while standing up to outdoor weathering. With a wide range of natural and contemporary shades, you can refresh tired sleepers or style new ones to suit your garden - all while ensuring long-term protection.
