We would recommend that new wood is treated with Seasonite new wood protection and then allowed to weather for a minimum of 6 months after which time Shed & Fence Paint can be applied. Weathered wood surfaces To begin with, it will be a good idea to take a deeper dive into the sort of green paint colours that are on-trend today. It doesn't matter whether you end up feeling a sense of inspiration from any of these, however, because you may well prefer to save other shades in your basket. Even so, it is still often helpful to examine some of the trendiest greens to understand why they're so popular. In some ways this was good for the new finish as woodstain doesn't really work over paint or other coatings as it's supposed to let the wood below shine thru. Being water-based there is every chance it will not last any longer than the (water-based) Dulux product before it but we can't criticise the product in advance. Shed & Fence Paint contains Owatrol’s Emulsa-Bond, giving it excellent adherence without the need for lengthy preparation and priming. It is available in 35 different shades and when applied to bare wood is guaranteed against flaking and peeling for 15 years on vertical surfaces and 5 years on horizontal surfaces. Shed & Fence Paint is perfect for creating a signature look to your exterior wood structures and provides exemplary protection against UV damage and moisture problems. Ideal Uses for Shed & Fence Paint

Clean all tools and equipment with soap and water whilst still wet. If allowed to dry, remove with paint stripper. Owatrol’s Shed & Fence Paint is an all-in-one opaque wood protection and finish designed for both new and weathered exterior wood surfaces including wooden sheds, fences, summer houses and more. It is formulated especially to provide long-lasting protection for sheds and fences without the risk of peeling or flaking. Before using Shed & Fence Paint, all surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease and mildew. However, if your wood is new it will also have a hard shiny surface known as mill glaze which prevents maximum penetration – preventing any coating from adhering properly. Not only does Johnstone's Shed & Fence offer superior protection and a long-lasting finish, but it is also easy to apply. Our smooth and fast-drying formula makes it an ideal choice for both professional painters and DIY enthusiasts, saving you time and effort.Before starting your project, test penetration and absorbency by sprinkling water lightly onto the wood. If the water is absorbed rapidly, surface is free of contamination and ready for staining. If water is repelled, thorough preparation, as for new wood must be performed. Untreated wood surfaces which have weathered for 6 months or more need a thorough cleaning to restore their original colour and remove any built-up dirt before applying Shed & Fence Paint. To do this simply use Net-Trol wood cleaner which is scrubbed on, left to work and then rinsed off. Be sure to allow your wood to dry thoroughly for 48 hours afterwards before applying Shed & Fence Paint. Previously coated surfaces

Before starting application, test the colour choice on a small area and allow to dry to determine final colour. Always read the Shed & Fence Paint Product Information before using and follow the instructions carefully. A good case in point is Aquamarine Dream. This mid-tone green paint is very versatile and would suit a bedroom just as much as a living space. A billiard green with an azure undertone, it would even suit a games room. Boulder Lichen, by contrast, provides a glass bottle green tonality with a vine-like undertone. It'd be perfect in a bathroom or shower room.
