cresote in loft

[PATTY BHOY]

when erecting a new loft when would be the best time to treat with cresote.treat sections before assembly or wait till erected.

[Beanz]

I would do it when erected otherwise you will end up full of it when putting the loft up.

i used a garden sprayer the loft soaked it up  but it does take a while to dry if you use to much

[andrew gooch]

on my last loft used 1tub creote mixed with old engine oil from local garage aplied when erected every year with roller and tray.

wood was as good as new when dismantled. got one loft won in raffle in blackpool 22years ago treated same way put back up this summer that still like new

my father in laws old loft was done like that, it lasted forever,my "new"loft will be treated the same way,but how long does it take to dry with the oil in the mix?
