FAQs

Can I use this on decking?

No, Cuprinol Garden Shades is not suitable for decking due to the specific wear and tear requirements of those surfaces.

How many coats are required?

A minimum of two coats is required for the best colour and protection.

Is it safe for pets?

Once the paint is fully dry, it is believed to be safe for wood that pets or birds might come into contact with or gnaw.

How do I clean up after painting?

You can clean brushes and equipment easily with water and a household detergent.

What should I do if the paint freezes?

The paint should be stored in a place protected from frost; avoid using or storing it in extreme temperatures.

Can I apply this over existing paint?

Yes, but you must remove any loose or flaking paint first and sand the area if the previous coating is still sound but glossy.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Ensure the surface has been cleaned of dirt and grease, and lightly sand any glossy or old painted areas to provide a key.

Visible streaks or uneven finish

Ensure you are stirring the paint thoroughly before and during use. Apply evenly along the grain of the wood.

Spray nozzle clogging

Filter the paint through a fine mesh before pouring into the sprayer and ensure the sprayer is cleaned according to the manufacturer's instructions after every use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of loose debris. If applying over old paint, remove any flaking material and lightly sand the area to improve adhesion. Apply the paint in dry conditions when the temperature is above 5 degrees Celsius. When finished, clean your brushes with water and a little detergent. Store the remaining paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring it is protected from frost and extreme temperatures. For disposal, take any leftover product to a certified Community RePaint collection point.
