Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this paint on decking?

No, this product is not formulated for the high-wear demands of decking surfaces.

How many coats are required?

A minimum of two coats is required to achieve the best colour and long-term protection.

Is it safe for use around pets and wildlife?

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

What is the surface coverage of a 1L tin?

A 1L tin covers approximately 10-12 square metres depending on the porosity of the surface.

Can I apply this with a spray gun?

Yes, it is compatible with Cuprinol sprayers. Always refer to the sprayer's user guide before use.

How long does it take to dry?

It is touch dry in 1 hour under dry conditions, but you should wait 8 hours between coats.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Ensure the wood is clean and dry. If the surface was previously painted, lightly sand it to improve adhesion.

Visible streaks or uneven finish

Ensure you are applying the product evenly along the grain and using a consistent amount of paint per brush stroke. Applying a second coat will help even out the appearance.

Paint was applied but it rained shortly after

If the paint was washed away or affected by moisture before it dried, allow the area to dry completely, sand lightly if necessary, and re-apply in dry conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides up to 6 years of exterior weather protection
  • Water-based formula allows for easy tool cleaning with water
  • Enhances natural wood texture rather than hiding it completely
  • Suitable for porous materials like brick and stone in addition to wood

Cons

  • Not intended for use on high-traffic areas like decking
  • Requires a minimum of 2 coats for full opacity and protection
  • Sensitive to extreme temperatures and wet weather during application

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dirt or flaking material. If painting previously coated wood that is peeling, strip it back to the bare wood. For the best finish, apply at least two coats with a brush, roller, or appropriate sprayer. Always check the weather forecast; apply only in dry conditions above 5°C.

For ongoing care, keep the paint stored in a frost-free environment. If cleaning brushes or spray equipment, do so immediately after use with water and a mild household detergent while the paint is still wet. For environmental responsibility, do not discard leftover paint in general waste; locate a Community RePaint collection point near you.
