FAQs

What kind of surfaces can I use Cuprinol Ducksback Exterior Paint on?

This paint is specifically formulated for use on exterior sheds and fences, both rough sawn and planed timber.

How long will the weather protection last?

Cuprinol Ducksback provides up to 5 years of weather protection, helping to shield your sheds and fences from rain, frost, and UV damage.

Is this paint safe to use around my garden plants and pets?

Yes, once dry, Cuprinol Ducksback Exterior Paint has a low odour and is safe to be around plants and household pets.

How quickly does this paint dry?

It is a quick-drying formula, allowing for efficient project completion and often enabling multiple coats in a single day, depending on environmental conditions.

Do I need to prepare the surface before painting?

Yes, for best results, ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from any loose material, dirt, mould, or flaking paint. Light sanding may be beneficial for very smooth or previously painted surfaces.

Can I use this paint on decking or garden furniture?

No, this product is specifically designed for sheds and fences and is not recommended for high-traffic areas like decking or garden furniture.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour or patchy finish

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and uniformly prepared. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application. Apply evenly in the direction of the wood grain, ensuring sufficient coverage.

Paint not drying properly

Check local temperature and humidity; drying times can be extended in cold or damp conditions. Ensure thin, even coats are applied rather than thick layers. Ensure good ventilation if possible.

Flaking or peeling paint after application

This usually indicates poor surface preparation. Ensure all loose dirt, flaking paint, and mildew are removed before application. Sanding smooth or previously painted surfaces can improve adhesion.

Not achieving 5 years of protection

The 5-year protection is dependent on proper surface preparation and application of recommended coats. Ensure two full coats were applied according to instructions and that the wood was in good condition prior to painting.

  • Easy and clean application due to non-drip formula
  • Quick-drying for faster project completion

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from loose dirt, mould, or old flaking paint. For best adhesion, lightly sand any very smooth or previously painted surfaces. New wood should be clean and dry.
  2. Stirring: Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure consistent colour and formulation.
  3. Application: Apply with a brush or roller. For best results, apply two coats, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
  4. Coverage: > Info needed: Provide typical coverage per litre. As a general guide, 5L typically covers approximately 25-30 square meters with one coat, but this can vary depending on the wood's porosity and texture.

Compatibility

  • Surfaces: Specifically designed for use on rough sawn or planed sheds and fences.
  • Not Recommended For: Decking, garden furniture, or other high-traffic/high-wear areas.

Care

  • Maintenance: While offering 5-year protection, regular visual checks of your sheds and fences are recommended. Reapply a fresh coat after 5 years or sooner if signs of wear or fading appear, to maintain optimal protection and appearance.
  • Cleaning Tools: Clean brushes and rollers with water immediately after use.
