| NDwheat - 10/20/2025 03:22 Would the finish on a wooden rocking chair be protected by something like Thompson water seal if it sits out on a deck? Is there a better protectant that I should use or will the chair just deteriorate anyway?
Bottom line: Would the finish on a wooden rocking chair be protected by something like Thompson water seal if it sits out on a deck? No.
Is there a better protectant that I should use? Yes- a cover that would keep off rain and sunlight.
Will the chair just deteriorate anyway? Yes, very probably- you'll be the first to know how quickly, but hey, it's a chair. If it's the chair your grandma rocked you to sleep in as a baby, keep it indoors. Otherwise, enjoy it, but cover it when you're not sitting in it.
