FAQs

Can I use this on decking?

No, Cuprinol Garden Shades is not formulated for the high-wear demands of decking.

Is it safe for my pets?

Yes, once the paint is fully dry, it is considered safe for wood that pets or birds may come into contact with or gnaw.

How many coats are required?

A minimum of two coats is required to achieve the intended color and level of protection.

What is the drying time?

It is touch-dry in 1 hour under dry conditions, and you can apply a second coat after 8 hours.

How do I clean my brushes?

Because this is a water-based paint, you can simply clean your brushes with water after wiping off excess product.

Can it be used on brick or stone?

Yes, this paint is suitable for use on terracotta, brick, and stone surfaces in addition to garden wood.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Lightly sand the surface to create a key and ensure the area is completely clean and dry before re-applying.

Overspray on nearby surfaces

Clean any overspray immediately while the paint is still wet using water and a mild household detergent.

Color variation between areas

Ensure you stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to keep pigments mixed, and always perform a test patch on an inconspicuous area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation is essential for longevity. Start by removing any flaking paint and ensuring the surface is dry. If the wood is aged or untreated, apply a suitable wood preserver first. Store the container in a cool, frost-free environment and avoid applying in temperatures below 5°C or when rain is forecast. For cleaning, use a simple cloth to remove excess paint from brushes, followed by a thorough wash with water. Always dispose of leftover paint at a designated Community RePaint collection point to protect the environment.
