Fence Paints and Colours Frequently Asked Questions
{"type"=>"root", "children"=>[{"type"=>"paragraph", "children"=>[{"type"=>"text", "value"=>"Painting your fence is not merely about aesthetic appeal. Wood is an organic material that naturally absorbs moisture, which can lead to swelling, warping, and the growth of mould or rot. A quality fence paint acts as a vital protective barrier, sealing the wood fibres against water ingress and UV damage. This significantly extends the life of your timber structures, saving you time and money on costly repairs or replacements in the future."}]}]}
{"type"=>"root", "children"=>[{"type"=>"paragraph", "children"=>[{"type"=>"text", "value"=>"Preparation is the foundation of a successful finish. The wood must be clean, dry, and free from any algae, moss, or fungal growth. We recommend scrubbing the surface with a stiff brush and a dedicated garden cleaner to remove dirt and surface debris. If the timber is very weathered or has peeling paint, lightly sand it to create a smooth surface. Most importantly, ensure the wood is bone dry before you begin, as painting over damp wood can trap moisture inside and lead to premature failure of the coating."}]}]}
{"type"=>"root", "children"=>[{"type"=>"paragraph", "children"=>[{"type"=>"text", "value"=>"Yes, in most cases, you can paint over a previously treated fence, provided the old coating is sound. If the existing paint is peeling or flaking, you must sand or scrape away the loose material until you reach a stable surface. Once the loose paint is removed and the surface is clean and dry, you can apply a fresh coat. If the old treatment was an oil based stain and you are switching to a water based paint, ensure the old surface is well abraded to guarantee a strong bond."}]}]}
