Ronseal Stay White One Coat Satin Paint - White

This paint is specifically formulated for rough sawn garden timber like fences and sheds. It is not recommended for use on decking as it does not provide the necessary grip or wear resistance for foot traffic.

The paint provides a durable and long-lasting finish. However, exact longevity depends on environmental factors, exposure, and surface preparation. It's designed to protect against weathering.

While the paint is safe for pets and plants when dry, its primary design is for exterior garden timber. For interior surfaces, a dedicated interior paint would offer a more appropriate finish and durability.

The paint covers approximately 6 m² per litre on average. This can vary depending on the porosity and texture of the surface being painted.

Clean your brushes and any application tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water.

This paint is best applied to similar colours and ideally on rough sawn timber. Painting over existing gloss paint will likely require significant surface preparation, such as sanding and priming, and may not achieve the desired one-coat coverage or durability.

Avoid painting if rain is forecast within 1-2 hours, as the paint needs time to dry to the touch. If rain occurs before the paint is dry, you may need to re-apply the affected areas once the surface is dry.

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from contaminants before application. If the surface was not of a similar colour, a second coat might be necessary. Check for signs of previous treatments that may be incompatible.

Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use. Apply in thin, even coats, working with the grain. Avoid over-brushing. Ensure you are using a suitable brush for water-based paints.

Check that the temperature is within the recommended range (10°C-30°C) and humidity levels are not excessively high. Avoid applying too thickly, as this can prolong drying times.

While designed for one coat on similar colours, very porous or dark surfaces may require a second coat for full opacity. Allow the first coat to dry completely before applying a second.
