Datasheets

Ronseal Decking Rescue Paint - Safety Information

Overview

Ronseal Decking Rescue Paint offers a quick and easy way of restoring tired and grey garden decking, to give it a new lease of life.

Looking for a traditional decking finish? See our full range of Ronseal decking oils, stains and treatments

Preparation

Decked areas to be painted must be clean, dry and free from all surface dirt, debris and other contaminates.

Traces of surface mould, algae and moss should be scraped off with a scraper, stiff broom or brush
Areas affected by mould, moss or algae should then be treated with Ronseal High Performance Decking Cleaner
Once treated, rinse the decking boards off with a hose or better still, a jet washer
Remove as much loose, peeling of flaking material as possible by sweeping again
Allow to fully dry for 24 hours before applying Ronseal Decking Rescue Paint

Application

Always do a small test area before starting any project to assess the colour and compatibility of the finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times. Stir thoroughly before and periodically during application to ensure a consistent finish.

Apply Decking Rescue Paint liberally with a good quality decking paint brush or other decking applicator
When painting a deck, start in the furthest corner, brushing along the length of the decking boards
Work along 3-4 deck boards at a time, taking care to minimise overlapping of the paint
A little extra paint will fill small cracks and imperfections, giving a new uniform appearance across your deck
We recommend 2 coats of rescue paint, allowing 4-6 hours between coats
Allow the decking paint to fully harden for 48 hours before placing or moving garden furniture on or across the painted deck (temperature and humidity may affect the overall drying time)

Aftercare

Regular Cleaning

Decked areas can be swept on a regular basis to remove loose dirt and debris, then cleaned with Ronseal High Performance Decking Cleaner or Ronseal Garden Cleaner.

Maintenance

Check decking for signs of wear once annually, and if required, apply a fresh coat of Ronseal Decking Rescue Paint.

Idea for order decking by Graham Eagles

Took three coats but leaves a nice finish. Will need to paint decking each year to cover blemishes.

Excellent product by Mr T Keating

I liked this product it refreshed our old worn out looking decking and transformed it. However my better half didn’t like the colour so we ended painting over it with dark oak. We loved the finished article. Decking looks great

Surprisingly good! by Alan Moss

I must admit to being a bit sceptical when I bought this, but was very pleasantly suprised at how good my decking now looks. It was not originally high-quality wood, but now looks quite classy. The only reason I have not given 5 stars is because I'm waiting to see how the product survives the winter.

So far so good by Steve Wright

Very thick and covers well, seems to be very durable, didn’t quite get the coverage I thought, but overall seems like a quality product.

Looks really good by Ginger Tom

Covers really well, used a bit more than the "area coverage" stated on the advert but not too much. I will be able to give more info after the winter has had a go at it, but for now it looks great. Our decking was about 11 years old (softwood) I was debating renewing it but chose this option first. 5 Stars for the appearance ease of use etc but durability will have to wait.

Covered quite well with only one coat which was all I had time to do by 259 Hagley Road

Great price ,much cheaper than we’ll know DIY stores . Good coverage although I only had time to do one coat , it will get another next spring & I loved the grey colour which was a change from our flaky brown we had before

Brilliant!! by Gill Johnson

I have only put one coat on my tired old decking, that was about 2 months ago. Looks great. Didn't cover area as well as stated on the tin, had to order more, which made it quite expensive. Will try and put another coat on before winter. Happy with outcome, no scuffs or scratches, just a new lease of life.
