Can you use this on outdoor furniture? I see it has no UV protection.

I called Formby company for you, since their telephone number is on the bottle that I have in front of me. The customer relations advisor said their finish is only for inside furniture. If you want something for exterior wood use a product using teak oil and some of the Minwax finishes can be used outside.

I've only used it on mandolin pick guards and knife handles. I imagine it is not necessarily all weather, but could be re-applied...

I've used it on wooden items outside, but not in the full sun. I puts a beautiful finish on the wood, and may be worth treating every other year.

I use it outside but cover with a wood cabinet ( stained ). I think it is ok for this under the rain but I am afraid it expose to the Sun ( UV ) too much and make the plastic crack.

I have used it on couches and chairs and it worked well. I would just recommend a color test in a small hidden spot to make sure.

The is not labeled for outdoor. I'd suspect the exterior coating would become brittle and break down under UV and weather exposure.

Absolutely! I've had mine outside exposed to the AZ sun for the last three years (11/12) and it still looks great.I just hose off the dust and let air dry.However, I did spray paint it with Rustoleum when it arrived to a brown to match my patio furniture.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe there will be UV issues over a period of time. You may want to contact the manufacturer on this item.

Not sure but I would think it would be great for any outdoor furniture to repel water. I would stick to a fabric guard product for rugs such as Scotch Guard.

I don't use it outside. There is no reason it wouldn't. If my dog lived outside, I wouldn't hesitate to use it there. I would protect it from the sun damaging the plastic.

Hi...Unfortunately there is not a weatherproof cover available. You might need to measure it and see if there is a cover from other patio furniture set that will work...sorry

If left outside in the weather it will begin to rust or stain somewhat, fairly quickly. I sprayed mine with the same type of rubberized paint used on truck beds, but even with that it not completely weather-resistant. However, the furniture remains in very good condition after two years.

Yes but it has no UV protection so how long is it going to last..not very long.

Not sure if the basics have UV protection. You would need to use outdoor rated screws and broads.

It would probably not be a good idea unless it were protected better. The wood is oiled, which is water repellant enough for a kitchen, but constant exposure to weather would very likely ruin the surface and warp it. Most outdoor furniture is made with eucalyptus, teak or other naturally weather-resistant woods. This is maple, which is a poor choice for outdoor furniture.

Mine is destroyed after 2 years - kept inside in the winter, but not covered in the summer - I'm guessing UV is the culprit, but that hardly makes the sofa "all-weather" then does it...

This tanning lotion is designed for indoor tanning. However, it wouldn't cause any harm to use outdoors. As long as it's not being used as a sunscreen

I'm sure you can use it outdoors. It does not have sunscreen in it. So you may burn if you already don't have a base tan.

I have only used the Waterstop with UV protection. I have used it on both light and dark leather handbags. The light one I have is a bright yellow. I noticed no difference in the color after application.
