FAQs

Can I use Ronseal Garden Paint on plastic?

The product description specifies suitability for wood, metal, terracotta, brick, and stone. It does not explicitly mention plastic. For best results, we recommend sticking to the listed materials or performing a small patch test in an inconspicuous area if considering plastic.

How many coats of paint do I need?

For optimal colour depth and protection, we generally recommend applying 2 to 3 coats. The number may vary depending on the original colour of the surface and desired intensity.

How long does it take for the paint to fully cure and be hard-wearing?

While the paint is rainproof in just one hour, full curing time can take longer, typically 24-48 hours, depending on environmental factors like temperature and humidity. Allow sufficient time before placing heavy objects or exposing to harsh conditions.

Is Ronseal Garden Paint safe for plants and pets once dry?

Once dry, the paint is generally considered safe. However, avoid direct contact with plants during application. Always refer to the product label for specific safety information and keep pets away from freshly painted areas until completely dry.

What is the typical coverage of this paint?

Info needed: The exact coverage per litre is not provided in the product description. Always estimate based on your project and consider purchasing a little extra to ensure you have enough.

Can this paint be used indoors?

Ronseal Garden Paint is specifically designed and formulated for exterior use in the garden. For indoor projects, it's best to use paints specifically manufactured for interior environments.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well or is peeling prematurely.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, dry, and free from loose material before application. For metal, confirm a suitable primer was used and fully dried. Apply on a stable, prepared surface for best results.

Colour appears uneven or less vibrant than expected.

Stir the paint thoroughly before and during application to ensure even pigment distribution. Apply 2-3 coats, allowing adequate drying time between each, to achieve the full, rich colour and desired opacity.

Paint washed off by rain shortly after application.

Ensure at least one hour has passed since application before the paint is exposed to rain. While rainproof in an hour, avoid applying if heavy rain is expected within a few hours to allow for better curing.

Brush marks are visible in the dried finish.

Apply the paint in smooth, even strokes, avoiding overworking the paint as it begins to dry. Ensure your brush is clean and suitable for water-based paints. Applying in optimal temperature conditions (Info needed: specific temperature range) can also help.

Application

  • Apply with a good quality brush.
  • Apply 2-3 coats for the best colour and protection. Allow sufficient drying time between coats (Info needed: specific recoat time).
