Overview

Liberon Extreme Decking Paint is an advanced 2-in-1 formulation designed specifically to give old and worn decking a new lease of life. It both colours and protects decking boards with an opaque, anti-slip, matt finish.

Please note:

  • Liberon Extreme Decking Paint was previously rebranded as Liberon Garden ColourCare Decking Paint. The formulation has remained unchanged
  • This product is not suitable as an anti-slip system around pool edges

Important note regarding the 'Gun metal grey' colour variation: It has been reported by some of our customers that the 'gun metal grey' version of this product is more brown than grey. This is due to the heavier pigments that make the 'grey' colour sinking to the bottom of the tin and forming a sediment on the base of the tin. It is vitally important that this product is stirred thoroughly for several minutes, with a suitable paint stirrer, to ensure that all of the colour pigments are evenly dispersed within the paint before use. This is of course required for all colours within this range.

Preparation

Ensure the wood to be painted is clean, dry and free from dust, dirt and any other surface contaminants.

  1. Sand the surface of the decking to expose bare wood
  2. Dampen the decking with water. If the water absorbs into the timber, the decking is suitable for painting. If the water beads on the surface of the timber, the paint will not adhere and further sanding is required
  3. Degrease the surface with a lint-free cloth dampened with denatured alcohol
  4. On new timber, wait three months before painting. This will allow the timber to absorb the paint fully
  5. On exotic, hardwood or oily timbers, it maybe necessary to remove the natural oils from the wood surface by wiping over the surface with methylated spirit using a clean, lint-free cloth

Application

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times.

Ideal application conditions are between 12°C and 25°C in dry weather. Do not apply Garden ColourCare Decking Paint in strong winds or when bad weather is forecast. Stir the product thoroughly before and periodically during use with a mixer or wide stick, working around the bottom of the tin. This is to ensure that any of the heavier pigments and ingredients of the paint are thoroughly mixed with the other ingredients in the tin. This will help to ensure a more consistent finish across the project.

  1. Apply Liberon Decking Paint with a good quality synthetic brush, going between the grooves and edges, in 2m2 areas at a time
  2. Then paint with a microfibre roller in various directions (top to bottom and sideways) to avoid excessive application
  3. Allow 8 hours before applying a second coat
  4. On highly porous or highly exposed decking, a third coat may be required
  5. Ideally, allow a further 48 hours before light usage of the decking

Please note: To get the 5 Year Guarantee, this product must be applied in accordance with the manufacturers 'preparation' and 'application' instructions on the tin, and on surfaces not subject to capillary rise. The guarantee is limited to refunding of the product (presentation of the receipt and the tin is required) and concerns only the aspect of the paint.

Aftercare

Regular Cleaning

Decked areas can be swept on a regular basis to remove loose dirt and debris.

Maintenance

If there are any signs of heavy wear or surface damage, simply apply a fresh coat of Liberon Garden ColourCare Decking Paint, following the Preparation and Application instructions above.

Woods with little absorption (Iroko, Wenge, Larch, etc.) require a regular application of a maintenance coat.

When applying further coats of Extreme Decking Paint, wash the existing timber with a pressure washer and remove any foliage or moss and excess oil stains pior to painting.

Does what it says on the tin

As long as you mix it well before use as advised on the tin it will be applied easily. Only time will tell tell if it lasts.

An excellent product

Like many other people, I have used other so called proprietary brands and been disappointed overall because they look good initially but don't wear well. Liberon extreme decking paint is easy to apply and dries to an enduring finish. Quite simply it's a quality product that does what it says.

Excellent

The items arrived extremely quick. All the items we have bought recently and in the past have been 100 pc. Will always buy from you in the future.

Great long lasting product easy to use and

Great long lasting product easy to apply, looks good, hard wearing and not slippery when wet. Exactly what you need on the decking

Martyn Wells
Great product.

Good product, which readily dilutes with a little water to make it usable from a spray gun, extending the coverage. A couple of tins had my decking looking like new.

All I would expect

'Just' two tins of paint But, delivered well-packed and timely. Good to know where to get paint when I need it quickly

Great product, great service!

I buy this decking paint every year - testament to the quality and finish of the product. Despatch is swift and the paint is always well-protected by the packaging. I wouldn't buy from anywhere else!

Good product great coverage

After painting the decking with both the big name decking paint suppliers and have it peeling off in less than a year even though the preparation was as recommended, I thought I would try Liberon as the reviews seemed good. I prepared the decking as previously done and painted it, the first thing I noticed was how good the coverage was and how easy it went on. Three years later I've bought some more just to freshen the decking up not like with the other paints where it was peeling off but general wear and tear. Its the best decking paint I've used to date

Great decking paint

Had tried the usual decking stains /paints but all came off within a couple of months even though the preparation was done as recommended. Using Liberon was easy to apply and still good 2yrs later

Rubbish product. Started coming off after 3 weeks

Absolute waste of money. Spent around £100 on this paint and needed to completely redo decking a few weeks later as it was such a mess.

Brilliant for old worn decking

In two coats, 3 cans of this transformed a 6m x 5m splintered, dark brown (but otherwise sturdy) deck. It looks bright, neutral and newer than I could have hoped for. The colour goes beautifully with greenery and terracotta pots. Have purchased another tin ready for top ups next year, but after 4 months it looks perfect so not sure I'll need it for a while.

Awful product, waste of money.

Bought this as it looked a more specialised product than your every day decking treatment. However what is not made clear is that you must completely strip any previous coatings. By completely, I mean COMPLETELY. If this product cannot get into bare wood it will not work. I couldn't strip everything off a large decking area (who has time to get into every groove of every decking plank??) but I did what I considered a pretty good job. Even put five coats on heavy traffic areas! Within weeks it was wearing off. I've used many cheaper products that are way better than this. Don't waste your money.

Nice colour

This paint seems like good stuff, thick and easy to wash off and dried quickly. We used it on a very large decking area and it took more paint than expected so coverage is probably less than stated. The colour is really nice. Some of the paint has started coming off where there’s more foot traffic and where it’s wetter but to be honest I can’t see how this is avoidable. When would painted wood that is constantly wet and walked on not show flaking. Very good service from Wood Finishes Direct. So hence the 4 stars.

This is by far the best water based decking paint I have used.

I'm a professional decorator who is always on the look out for good quality waterbourne paints, lots of manufacturers lay claim to all sorts of wonderful things their paints does, but few live up to it. I used Liberon for the first time last year and have to say I was very impressed. It covers well, is nice to work with and has the added bonus of drying quickly. Time will tell with regards to whether it will last the claimed five years it states on the tin. I have painted my own fencing this year with it and it looks great, a few neighbours asking what it was as they were unable to get the level of finish on their own fence using other brands, mainly those that suggest 'it does exactly what it says on the tin'. This will be my go to paint now for decking and fencing and I can't recommend this product enough.

Excellent protection for wood.

I have used this a number of times for fencing, really good paint hardly ever drips while applying. Have problems with pigeons so have to pressure wash fence occasionally and the paint withstands this with no problem.

Amazing quality product, easy to apply, looks fantastic

Very happy with Liberon Garden Decking Paint, very easy to use, modern colour, we painted 3 months ago and the paint has not peeled off in any area. We painted over old decking paint (which we had sanded) and it stuck to it well. Speedy delivery too. Cannot recommend this paint highly enough A+++
