FAQs

How long does the protection last?

Cuprinol Garden Shades offers up to 6 years of weather protection when applied correctly.

Can I use this on a fence that has already been treated?

Yes, provided the existing treatment is sound. Lightly sand the surface to ensure good adhesion before applying.

What is the best way to apply Cuprinol Garden Shades?

It can be applied by brush or spray. Stir well and apply evenly, usually two coats are recommended for best results.

Can I use this product indoors?

No, Cuprinol Garden Shades is specifically formulated for exterior use on garden wood and other masonry surfaces.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Being a water-based formulation, brushes and equipment can be cleaned easily with water immediately after use.

What colours are available?

Cuprinol Garden Shades are available in a range of colours, including Barleywood and Terracotta, among others. Please check packaging or product listings for the full range.

Can I apply this over existing paint or stain?

It is best applied to bare wood or previously treated surfaces that have been prepared by sanding. If applying over an existing colour, test in an inconspicuous area first.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour after application

Ensure the product was thoroughly stirred before and during application. Apply a second even coat if necessary, ensuring consistent brush strokes or spray pattern.

Product not drying or remains tacky

Check environmental conditions; application in very high humidity or low temperatures can slow drying. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid applying too thickly.

Peeling or flaking after treatment

Surface preparation may have been insufficient. Ensure the wood was dry and clean before application, and that the product was applied in suitable weather conditions. Lightly sand affected areas and reapply.

Water beading on the surface instead of running off

This indicates the water-repellent properties are active and the product is performing as expected.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent 6-year weather protection.
  • Provides an attractive, natural-looking matt finish.
  • Suitable for a wide range of garden surfaces beyond just wood.
  • Water-based formulation makes cleanup simple.
  • Can be applied via brush or spray for user convenience.

Cons

  • Requires specific temperature and humidity conditions for optimal application and drying.
  • Opaque finish may obscure very fine wood grain details if multiple coats are applied too thickly.
  • Water-based products may require reapplication sooner than solvent-based alternatives in extremely harsh conditions.
  • May not be suitable for smooth, pre-finished, or waxed surfaces without proper preparation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure the surface to be treated is clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, and other contaminants. Remove any loose debris or flaking paint. If treating previously treated wood, lightly sand the surface to ensure good adhesion.

Compatibility:

Suitable for all types of garden wood including sheds, fences, trellises, summerhouses, and furniture. Also compatible with terracotta, brick, and stone. Do not apply to pre-finished, varnished, or waxed surfaces without adequate preparation.

Application:

Stir the product thoroughly before and during use. Apply evenly with a brush or spray. For best results, apply two coats. Avoid applying in very damp, humid, or frosty conditions. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying.

Care:

Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with water. Store any unused product in its original container with the lid tightly closed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This product is for exterior use only.
