My section of Connecticut has many barns that have been up for 200 years, never painted or other home remedies like oiling. Two keys are a good roof to keep the rain off, and a foundation to keep the water drained away. Once the roof goes, the barn will go withing a decade or so even if it stood the last 200.

And I reckon you're right, you've never lost a barn from being soaked in oil. Just lost them faster and with less left over afterwards. I live in an area with a lot of old brick & heavy timber textile mills with wood floors soaked in machinery oil that's dripped from the machines over the years, and that's always been an observation once they get going how fast the fire spreads.
