Usage Instructions

Before starting your project, it’s important to choose a warm, dry day with temperatures above 10°C. Begin by thoroughly clearing the deck of any furniture and debris. To prepare the surface, scrub your decking with a stiff brush to remove dirt, loose wood, and any existing coatings. Rinsing the deck thoroughly with a hose or jet wash is essential, as any residue can hinder paint adhesion. For optimal results, using Ronseal Decking Cleaner & Reviver will enhance the paint's longevity and adherence. Allow your deck to dry completely before proceeding to paint.

Once you are ready to apply the paint, stir it well using a wide implement, such as an old wooden spoon, and check the colour by doing a test patch in an inconspicuous area. Using a brush or decking pad, apply the paint liberally, starting from the furthest corner and brushing along the length of 3-4 boards at a time to avoid unsightly overlap marks. Ensure that you pay special attention to any small cracks, applying extra paint to fill them in.

For the best protection, two coats of paint are recommended. Allow 4 hours of drying time between coats, and after 48 hours, your deck will be ready for furniture placement and regular use.

Aftercare and Maintenance

Following your painting project, it’s important to clean your tools immediately. Wipe off as much paint as possible and wash brushes or pads in warm, soapy water. Never dispose of leftover paint down drains or watercourses; instead, check with your local authority for appropriate disposal methods.

To maintain the beauty and integrity of your deck, inspect it at least once a year. If you notice signs of wear, simply apply another coat of Ronseal Ultimate Protection Decking Paint to ensure your outdoor space continues to look beautiful and remain protected against the elements.

Choose Ronseal Ultimate Protection Decking Paint for a durable, weather-resistant finish that transforms your deck into a safe and inviting outdoor retreat.
