FAQs

How long does Ronseal Fence Life Plus last?

Ronseal Fence Life Plus is formulated to provide durable protection and colour for up to 5 years, depending on weather exposure and surface preparation.

Can I use this product on decking or garden furniture?

This product is specifically designed for sheds and fences. It is not recommended for decking or other surfaces that will be walked on, nor is it typically recommended for garden furniture that requires a different type of finish and durability.

How many coats should I apply?

While one coat will provide colour, applying two coats is generally recommended for optimal protection, enhanced colour depth, and maximum durability.

What is the coverage rate for Ronseal Fence Life Plus?

On average, you can expect one litre of Ronseal Fence Life Plus to cover up to 6 square metres, depending on the porosity and texture of the wood surface.

Do I need to prepare the wood before painting?

Yes, proper surface preparation is crucial for the best results. Ensure the wood is clean, dry, and free from dirt, mould, algae, or loose flakes of old paint. Light sanding may be beneficial for smooth planed surfaces.

Can I apply Ronseal Fence Life Plus with a sprayer?

The product description specifies 'using a brush'. For optimal results and product performance, it is recommended to apply Ronseal Fence Life Plus with a good quality paint brush.

Troubleshooting

Paint not drying within 1 hour

Ensure application was in thin, even coats. Check weather conditions; high humidity or low temperatures can significantly extend drying time. Ventilate the area if possible.

Uneven colour or patchy finish

Ensure the product was thoroughly stirred before and periodically during use. Apply a second, even coat after the first has dried completely. Ensure surface preparation was adequate, as dirt or old coatings can affect absorption.

Poor coverage or product running

Ensure the surface is properly prepared and not excessively porous. Apply thinner coats, working along the wood grain. Avoid overloading your brush, which can lead to drips and runs.

Paint peeling or flaking after drying

This often indicates poor surface preparation. The wood must be clean, dry, and free from loose material, mildew, or grease. Remove any flaking paint from previous applications, clean the surface, and reapply.

Pros and Cons

  • Achieves a vibrant, opaque colour with excellent coverage.
  • Very fast drying time, enabling multiple coats or project completion in a single day.
  • Easy to apply using a brush, suitable for DIY users.
  • Compatible with common outdoor wood surfaces like sheds and fences.

Cons

  • Specifically designed for brush application, may not be suitable for sprayers.
  • Requires thorough surface preparation for best results.
  • Optimal application is weather-dependent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Before you begin, ensure your workspace is well-ventilated and protected with dust sheets. Have your chosen paint brush and stirring stick ready. Ensure the product is at room temperature for optimal consistency.

Compatibility

Ronseal Fence Life Plus is specifically formulated for rough sawn and smooth planed sheds and fences. It is not intended for use on decking or other walkable surfaces where slip resistance is critical. While compatible with most timber types used for fences and sheds, always perform a small test patch in an inconspicuous area if you are unsure.

Care and Storage

  • Product Storage: Store the paint in its original container, tightly sealed, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • Brush Cleaning: Clean brushes immediately after use with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
  • Spills: Clean up any spills immediately with a damp cloth before the paint dries.
