Palatine Professional Shed & Fence Paint 5lt | Oil Based paint for use on Sheds & Fences (Anthracite Grey)

Product Information

From my experience, these paints really do only require a single coat and look great, at least the more well-known brands do – on the testing the Ronseal One Coat Fence Paint covered superb. However after using the Wagner fence sprayer I started using the Cuprinol without watering down as it’s capable. I have to say, Ronseal one coat is definitely ahead of the curve on this one (probably pretty obviously). Make sure the existing paint is in good condition prior to painting, then lightly abrade to provide a key for good intercoat adhesion. On smooth timber I had decent results with both Ronseal fence life plus range and Cuprinol Ducksback despite the Cuprinol Ducksback I used not being recommended for planned finish timber.

Traditional wood oils, such as Danish Oil, require multiple coats to provide adequate protection to sheds and fences, and may require regular recoating through the year to maintain. Abraid area prior to painting to remove old flaking paint and imperfections, abrasion will also assist the paint bonding and provide a good key to unpainted substrates. As a general rule, we’d advise that all lose and flaking paint is removed and that the fence is abraded and thoroughly cleaned and degreased prior to application.Available in four different colours, and each one looking fantastic, a 5-litre can should give you enough paint for about five 6x5ft fence panels if you’re giving them a double coating, and I recommend that you do, especially if you want the paint to last for years to come. The use of darker shades is very on-trend at the moment all over the home because of their ability to suit any space.

Ideal for all vertical wood surfaces in outdoor areas: doors, windows, window shutters (dimensionally stable elements), carports, timber cladding, balconies, fences, pergolas, and summer houses (dimensionally unstable. Now this comparison is far more interesting than the split of the modern as these are wildly different. This is a great fence paint to use for waterproofing purposes as it has been enriched with wax, and this just brings it to the next level of rain resistance. Apart from that, this has been superb and lasted 18 months on the shed already and looks as good as new mainly because it’s oil based and bites in deep – easily the best actual protection other than wood preservers for fence panels in the UK at sensible money! This gives you the opportunity to update all of your exterior surfaces using the same tin of paint, which can save money and time.

I will test the best brands in the UK against each other once and for all, panels next to each other, side by side.
