I basically chose the very best paints and treatments available for fences available in the UK. Best fence paints tested Unwanted Food or Drink Products - Once supply conditions are broken, there are a number of factors outside of our control that can affect the quality of a product. Therefore perishable goods such as food and drink cannot be returned. As you can see the kids didn’t quite finish painting the fence 😀 But what really surprised me was just how well one coat of Charcoal grey actually covered this fence. I mean it definitely has a slightly different darker look to a panel freshly painted with no dark colours behind it, but honestly, that’s only one coat, it’ll become far more grey on a second and third (which I will get around to at some point). Testing Cuprinol fence paint covering up a dark brown with one coat

Cuprinol vs Ronseal fence paint – my opinion there is no competition – Cuprinol every time. Remember that’s just my opinion from experience and prolonged use. This is a great fence paint to use for waterproofing purposes as it has been enriched with wax, and this just brings it to the next level of rain resistance. What’s more, just like with Ronseal’s best products, this one is showerproof after an hour or so. Here’s a look at my most recent before and after tests: I just feel like the grain came out more on the Cuprinol and looked pretty dramatic. What do you think? This is totally a personal preference thing While a lot of new products are claiming to last for 4-5 years, Ronseal are a bit more conservative when it comes to this stuff, and say it will keep its colour for 2 years. When you consider that that is with only a single coat, it is still very impressive. So what I did was decided to lay a coat on a panel that’s already got some stain on it. I have to say the results were impressive again:Easy to apply via sprayer, roller, or brush, Hammerite’s metal paint can even be applied onto rust, and has an anti-corrosive pigment in the formula, designed to react with moisture in the atmosphere and create a protective barrier for your fence.

For the new panels which are four foot, I also decided on 800ml. We both know untreated timber will absorb far more paint and I want this to be a realistic and sensible test so giving them every opportunity. New unpainted fence panels absorb more paint There is no need to have multiple products to make your metal fence look as good as new, as this one does it all, and can act as a primer, undercoat, and topcoat, and the results are outstanding, leaving you with a wonderful shiny, gloss finish. Once set it looked absolutely superb – after using my fences to test various colours I will be settling on this – don’t panic until it’s set, below is the result you’ll get from two coats with the Wagner sprayer:

Best oil based fence paint: Creocote wood fence treatment– beautifully enhances the wood appearance just like teak oil but for a fraction of the price. [tested personally and proven] Ronseal have made a very good name for themselves over the years by continually producing innovative new paint products and stains onto the market. I was already a big fan of their fence life one coat paint after using it for my very own garden fence, so I was excited to try out their latest stuff: Ronseal fence Life Plus. I will admit, I wasn’t expecting the same performance as Cuprinol but it was right up there, though I was worried on the first coat just like Cuprinol:
