Does this paint protect against fading?

Yes, on wood, this paint offers 10-year color protection, resisting fading, cracking, and peeling to keep your garden features looking vibrant for a long time.

Do I need to use a primer with this paint?

Generally, no, for wood, brick, terracotta, and stone. However, for metal surfaces, applying a suitable primer beforehand is strongly recommended to ensure optimal adhesion and durability.

How much paint is in this tin?

This particular product comes in a 750ml tin of Rainforest Green paint.

Can I use this paint indoors?

This paint is specifically formulated for outdoor garden use, designed to withstand external weather conditions. Indoor application is not typically recommended unless specified by the manufacturer for a particular use case.

How should I clean my tools after using the paint?

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well or peeling.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly clean, dry, and free from loose material before application. For metal, always use an appropriate primer first.

Uneven color or streaky finish.

Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application to ensure pigments are well mixed. Apply paint evenly with consistent brush strokes, avoiding overspreading.

Paint appears to be taking longer than 1 hour to become rainproof.

Ensure paint was applied in thin, even coats. Environmental factors such as high humidity or very cool temperatures can slow down drying times. Check weather conditions and apply in optimal temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparing for Painting

Proper preparation is key to achieving the best results and ensuring the longevity of your painted surfaces.

Clean Surfaces: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt, dust, grease, and any loose or flaking material. A stiff brush or power washer (allowing ample drying time) can be effective.
Remove Loose Paint: If painting over previously painted surfaces, scrape off any loose or peeling paint to create a smooth, sound base.
Primer for Metal: When painting metal, it is highly recommended to use a suitable metal primer first. This will ensure optimal adhesion and long-term durability.
Stir Thoroughly: Before and periodically during use, stir the paint well to ensure an even consistency and color.

Application Tips

Apply Ronseal Garden Paint using a good quality brush or roller. Ensure even application for a consistent finish.
Apply in suitable weather conditions, avoiding extreme heat, cold, or high humidity.
Allow the recommended drying time between coats if multiple coats are desired for a deeper color or added protection. While rainproof in 1 hour, recoat times might be longer.

Wood: Fences, sheds, garden furniture, planters.

Care & Maintenance

Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with warm water.

Reapplication: While offering 10-year protection on wood, environmental factors can vary. Inspect surfaces periodically and reapply as needed to maintain protection and vibrancy, especially on high-traffic or exposed areas.
