Finally, wood preservers can come in a range of colours and are designed to prevent discolouring fungi and wood-boring insects in the timber, thanks to ingredients in the formulation such as fungacides. While wood products come in all shapes and sizes, there are two broad forms; those that change the appearance of the wood and those that offer clear, invisible protection. A wood preserver generally contains anti-fungal and anti-bug components to help protect wood, which is then either left as a decorative topcoat or overcoated using another fence treatment, such as a wood paint.
