Sapele is a medium to dark reddish brown heartwood predominantly from West Africa.  It generally has a more random grain appearance meaning it can be liable to interlocked grain.  Interlocked grain spirals around the centre of the tree thus alternating intermittently and causing a 'rough' effect, this can generally be reduced if not eliminated by heavy sanding.

It is up to you and really depends what look you are after. They will go grey if you leave them and that is a natural barrier and is generally my choice with oak. Otherwise you can vanish/oil them and this will provide extra protection especially from moisture which is the worst thing to cause decay, but it will be an ongoing job with most oils. I have found with tung/danish oil that if left outside over winter as it will start to weather black and then grey in a matter of months and to avoid this it requires constant re coating.
 
We have recently starting stocking Restol which is able to protect the wood and maintain the oak for several years without a re coat and is proving very popular.

    Nicely finished slats and the correct size, just what I wanted, Thankyou Yandles. Ps, you need to put better pictures on the robot link as some are hard to see for an older person with poor eyesight !

    Restored an old wrought iron bench with these fitted exactly to the old sizes, and saved a lot of time having all the edges rounded off. very good product.

  3. robertthomasbtopenworldcom (verified owner)

    Good product looks good on my re-furbished bench, only disappointment was the brown parcel tape used to keep the slats together during transit that left a sticky residue on the wood that proved difficult to remove without resorting to a spirit based cleaning agent and sandpaper.
