I'm with broke on this. I've never treated Cypress for outdoor use. In fact, I don't know of a better wood than Cypress for outdoor use, with exception to Teak, which no one should afford if you have access to Cypress.

Wilson Cypress Co. once the second largest Cypress Mill in the world was located in my home town. There are old homes and camps along the river where I live made of Cypress that have been here over 150 years. Still rock solid.
