If ya happy enough with really dark wood, leave the diesel out and just paint the straight sump oil on your posts. We have been doing this for 5 generations on our farm and it works. We leave replacement posts soak in the oil at the bottom to stop them rotting and when you have miles of fences it's worth the effort. Plus the grass grows around it fast so I actually beg to differ if someone says it's bad for the environment. Our options are treated pine Vs red gum pillars and it's proven that the psyonide they treat pine with can seap into the soil and cause cancer. But I have never seen evidence of red gum soaked in sump oil causing that. This is a great lesson for the young generation thanks for sharing 😊

The fence wouldn’t needed another coat for 12-15 years. My Grandad brother was a Mechanic so there was always of plenty oil.

to speed up the filtering process, mix the diesel and motor oil FIRST, then strain it through the shirt when pouring it into the sprayer. the thinner consistency will make it flow much quicker. :)

How much oil should you mix to two gallon of diesel

Looks like a great idea. As far as being environmentally friendly i wouldn't worry about it to much as all of us each day run a motor vehicle day in and day out which isnt really good for the environment and we been doing it now for past 100 years.

Way to go!! Good job!! This is a great way to use dirty motor oil rather than dispose of it into the environment. Also, the oil and gasoline mixture is kept locally not just on the property, but to the exact location of the fence. My only word of caution would be to not use a sprayer on a windy day or around a creek, river or water source; use a rag and rub it on if possible. If you must use a sprayer, hold or place a shield of cardboard behind and underneath the area you are treating. Once the mixture hits the wood, you're good.

Good video, People been doing this for just so many years, only thing different l do is mix it with diesel then strain through fabric, quicker, l and many more think it's way better than stuff from stores.

That is really beautiful. We are building a new fence. SO glad I saw this! We are in Rural as well.

You are the answer to my prayers! We have 8 panels running down our drive which we are going to remove next year. We were going to paint it for this year to make it look better. NOT ANY MORE! Can not wait to do your process. Thank You for your post!

I like the way you present this . It's practical and informational. I wouldn't be concerned too much about the ecological implication of staining your wood fence with used oil and diesel. For one thing, it's just a small portion and your're doing it responsibly and secondly I think used oil and diesel are biodegradable in themselves so it will break down in time but I don't know for how long.

An alternative, if you don't have access to used motor oil, is to mix the diesel fuel with brush grade roofing tar. Diluted down, the tar is dark brown and has the same water repellent qualities. Not free, but much cheaper than store bought stain. Applied it to a new white cedar fence last year - looks great.

Why not use ochre? Or other powdered concrete colour?

I like it! I wonder about spraying treated pole barn posts with it before I put them in the ground?

Well done, love the color! Thank you 😊
