Preparation Instructions

Before starting your painting project, ensure that the environmental conditions are ideal. The paint should be applied on warm days when temperatures exceed 10°C, with no rain forecasted.

# Preparing New Wood

- Allow new wood to weather for six weeks to ensure any factory coatings are washed away.

- Lightly sand the surface to remove loose fibres and splinters.

- Wipe the wood with a lint-free cloth slightly dampened with methylated spirit.

# Preparing Old Garden Wood

- Sand down old wood to eliminate loose paint and create a smooth surface.

- Clean the surface with white spirit to remove dirt and grease.

- Remove any mould and algae; rotten wood should be cut away or treated to harden it.

# Preparing <a class='cat-link' href='https://bigshopper.co.uk/brand/other/'>Other</a> Surfaces

- For brick or stone, brush away any dust and debris.

- Terracotta should be sanded until the shiny glaze is removed, with water applied to ensure absorption.

- Metal surfaces require priming before application, using a grey primer for darker colours and a white primer for lighter ones.

Application Tips

Start by thoroughly stirring the paint to ensure the colour pigments are well mixed. It’s wise to test the colour on a small, hidden area before applying the first coat. For best results, apply three coats, ensuring to brush along the direction of the wood grain when painting wood. Lightly sand between the second and third coats on smooth surfaces for optimal adhesion.

Aftercare and Maintenance

To extend the life of your Ronseal Garden Paint, regularly clean painted furniture and surfaces. Brushes can be washed in warm soapy water. If you notice the finish beginning to fade or wear over time, simply apply a fresh coat to restore its vibrant colour and protective qualities.
