Preparation
Ensure that the wood to be treated is clean, dry, and free from surface dirt, loose debris, and any other contaminants.
Bare and New Timber
- Brush the surface of the wood with a stiff brush or broom to remove any ingrained dirt and debris
- Organic matter including mould, mildew, algae or fungi must be removed with a suitable wood cleaner
- All rotten timber must be cut out and replaced, at least 25mm in to good wood to ensure that all of the rot has been fully removed
- If the wood surface is looking worn or has greyed from sun damage and the effects of weathering, a suitable wood reviver or restorer should be used to revive the wood
- Any holes, gaps or splits in the surface of the wood can be filled with Cuprinol All Purpose Wood Filler or Cuprinol Ultra Tough Wood Filler if desired
- Treat the wood with a suitable wood preservative to protect against mould, algae, fungi and insect attack if required
Previously Coated Timber
Existing surface coatings such as paint or varnish must be fully removed back to bare wood prior to applying Shed & Fence Protector, either by sanding or using a suitable wood stripper.
Application
Always do a test area before starting any project to assess the colour and compatibility of the finish. Follow the manufacturers instructions on the tin at all times. Shake the contents of the tin well before and periodically during use to ensure a uniform colour.
- Apply 2-3 uniform coats of Cuprinol Shed & Fence Protector with a suitable brush in the direction of the wood grain
- Allow 48 hours drying time between coats
Aftercare
Maintenance
Cuprinol Shed and Fence Protector can be easily maintained as and when required by applying a fresh coat, following the Preparation and Application instructions above.
F.A.Q.
Q. is this Cuprinol shed paint suitable for a smooth planed timber summer house I'm having installed?
A. Cuprinol Shed and Fence Protector is suitable for all exterior wood. The colour of this product on smooth planed timber may be different than on rough sawn timber. Rough sawn timbers can absorb more of the product resulting in a darker, stronger colour than on some smooth planed timbers. We always recommend doing a test area before starting any large project to assess the colour and final finish once dried.
Q. Which is the most popular out of these Cuprinol Shed Paint Colours?
A. Colour is very subjective and what is best for one person or project may not be for someone else. The final colour can also be affected by the type, condition, and the natural colour of the wood that this product is being applied to. Cuprinol Shed and Fence Protector comes in Chestnut, Golden Brown, Acorn Brown and Rustic Green and we have found that all of these colours are popular with different customers. If you are looking for more colour choice, consider Cuprinol 5 Year Ducksback which is currently available in 9 colour shades
