Ronseal Garden Paint Clover 250ml

Ronseal Garden Paint is the ideal solution for adding vibrant colour and protection to various surfaces in your garden. This versatile paint is suitable for wood, brick, terracotta, and metal (where a primer may be necessary) and is specifically designed to withstand the elements.

# Key Features

- Waterproofing and Protection: The paint forms a protective barrier that waterproofs surfaces, ensuring that they remain safe from weather damage. It dries quickly and becomes rainproof within just one hour, providing peace of mind even in unpredictable weather conditions.

- Long-lasting Colour: Ronseal Garden Paint offers up to five years of colour protection for wood, resisting fading, cracking, and peeling. Its high solid content enhances the film build, resulting in a durable and long-lasting finish.

# Preparation Steps

Before starting your painting project, preparation is essential to achieve the best results.

- New Wood: Allow new wood to weather for six weeks to ensure that any residues are removed. After this period, lightly sand the surface to eliminate excess fibres and splinters, then wipe it down with a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with methylated spirit.

- Old Wood: For previously painted or weathered wood, sand down any loose paint and clean the surface with white spirit to remove dirt or grease. Remove any mould or algae, and address any areas of rot.

- Brick and Stone: Clean the surface by brushing away dust and debris before applying paint.

- Terracotta: Sand the surface to remove any glaze. Test with water; if it beads, continue sanding until the water no longer beads.

- Metal: Apply an appropriate primer before using the Garden Paint, using grey primer for darker colours and white for lighter shades.

# Application Process

Begin by stirring the paint thoroughly to mix the colour pigments. It is advisable to do a small test patch in a hidden area to ensure the colour meets your expectations. When applying the paint:

- For wood, always brush in the direction of the grain.

- Allow the first coat to dry for four hours before applying a second coat. For optimal coverage and protection, apply a total of three coats, lightly sanding the surface between the second and third coats for best results.

- Rest assured, your painted surfaces will be rainproof within an hour.

# Maintenance and Care

To prolong the life of your painted surfaces, clean furniture regularly and maintain the finish by applying additional coats of paint as needed. Brushes can easily be cleaned with warm soapy water after use.

Ronseal Garden Paint provides a brilliant and protective finish that enhances your outdoor spaces while ensuring lasting durability against the elements. Whether you're refreshing an old fence, adding colour to garden furniture, or protecting stone sculptures, this paint is designed to meet all your garden painting needs.
