FAQs

What types of wood can I use Johnstone's Garden Colours on?

This paint is designed for exterior wood and is suitable for sheds, fences, summer houses, arbours, trellises, tables, and chairs.

How should I prepare the surface before painting?

The surface should be clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose paint. Lightly sand any rough areas.

Can I use this paint on decking?

Johnstone's Garden Colours is intended for vertical wood surfaces and may not be suitable for high-traffic horizontal areas like decking, which require specialized decking treatments.

How many coats of paint are recommended?

Two thin coats are generally recommended for the best coverage, durability, and color depth.

What is the drying time between coats?

Drying times can vary based on conditions, but typically allow several hours between coats. Refer to the product can for specific drying times.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with water.

Will this paint cover the wood grain?

No, the formulation is designed to colour and protect while allowing the natural grain of the wood to show through.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the wood surface was properly cleaned, dry, and free from contaminants before application. Re-sand and reapply if necessary.

Uneven color coverage

Apply a second thin coat, ensuring even application. Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use.

Paint remains tacky after application

Ensure the paint was applied too thickly or in very humid/cold conditions. Allow more drying time in a well-ventilated area. Avoid applying excessively thick coats.

Color appears different than expected

The final color can be influenced by the wood type, its condition, and the number of coats applied. Consider applying a test patch in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation: Ensure the exterior wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and previous flaking finishes. Lightly sand rough surfaces. If painting over a dark color or a previously treated surface, a primer might be beneficial for optimal adhesion and color vibrancy.

Compatibility: This paint is specifically formulated for exterior wood. It is suitable for use on sheds, fences, summer houses, arbours, trellises, tables, and chairs.

Application: Apply with a good quality brush or roller. Two thin coats are generally recommended for best results. Allow adequate drying time between coats as per the manufacturer's instructions on the can.

Care: Clean application tools immediately after use with water. To maintain the finish, periodically clean the painted surface with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
