Ronseal Fence Life Plus - Grey

No, this product is specifically formulated for sheds and fences and is not suitable for decking or other areas subject to foot traffic. Using it on decking may result in a slippery surface.

While a single coat will provide colour and some protection, for the best colour depth, uniformity, and the full 5 years of protection, we recommend applying two even coats. Allow 1 hour between coats.

Ronseal Fence Life Plus Slate Matt typically dries within 1 hour under normal weather conditions, allowing you to complete your project quickly.

This product provides 5 years of protection for your sheds and fences, safeguarding them from the elements.

The product description specifies application with a brush. If you intend to use a sprayer, please consult Ronseal's general guidelines for sprayer compatibility or look for products specifically formulated for spray application.

The Slate Matt colour is opaque, meaning it will provide a solid, consistent grey finish that covers the natural grain and previous colours of the wood.

A 5L tub will cover up to 30 m² on average, based on a coverage rate of 6 m² per litre. Actual coverage may vary depending on the porosity and condition of the wood.

Ensure the wood surface was clean and dry before application. Stir the product thoroughly before and during use. Apply evenly with a good quality brush, ensuring consistent coverage. A second coat, applied after the first has dried (1 hour), will often even out any discrepancies and deepen the colour.

Check the weather conditions. Drying time can be extended by high humidity, low temperatures, or if the product has been applied too thickly. Ensure application is in thin, even coats and wait for optimal weather conditions (dry, mild temperatures).

Highly porous wood, such as very old or weathered rough sawn timber, will absorb more product. Ensure the surface is adequately prepared. While Ronseal Fence Life Plus offers good coverage, very rough or untreated wood may require more product per square metre. Adjust your estimation accordingly or consider an extra coat.
