Ronseal Fence Life Plus is engineered for robust performance in real-world outdoor conditions. Its primary function is to create a durable barrier against the elements, extending the life and maintaining the appearance of your fences and sheds. The five-year protection means you can expect your treated timber to withstand diverse weather, from winter frosts and heavy rain to summer UV rays, without significant degradation or color fade.
Application is straightforward; the paint's consistency allows for smooth spreading whether you're using a brush for precision or a spray for speed on larger areas. The ability to apply it to damp wood is a significant advantage, reducing downtime and allowing you to proceed with your projects even if the timber isn't completely dry. The quick showerproof time of one hour is particularly beneficial in unpredictable weather, minimizing the risk of wash-off if rain appears shortly after application.
The Medium Oak color provides a rich, warm brown tone that rejuvenates tired wood, making it look brand new. The UV protection is crucial for maintaining this aesthetic, preventing the common problem of wood treatments fading and becoming patchy over time. With an approximate coverage of 6m² per litre, a 5-litre tin is typically sufficient for a substantial area, making it an efficient choice for common garden projects.
Setup & Application:
Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean and free from loose debris. While it can be applied to damp wood, optimal adhesion and finish are achieved on reasonably clean surfaces. Give the tin a thorough stir before and during use to ensure consistent color and performance.
Application: Apply using a suitable brush for detailed areas or a spray for faster coverage on larger, open sections. Apply evenly along the grain of the wood.
Drying: The paint is showerproof in one hour. Allow approximately four hours for full drying between coats or before exposing to heavy use.
Compatibility:
Wood Types: Designed for use on all rough sawn and smooth timber surfaces.
Condition: Can be applied to damp wood, offering flexibility in application schedules.
Environment: Formulated for exterior use on fences and sheds. Do not use indoors.
Safety: Once dry, it is safe to use around pets and plants, making it suitable for family gardens.
Care & Maintenance:
Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and sprayers immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
Storage: Store any unused paint in a cool, dry place, ensuring the lid is tightly sealed to prevent drying out and maintain product quality for future touch-ups.
Reapplication: For continued protection and vibrant color, reapplication can be considered after the five-year protection period, or sooner if signs of wear or fading appear in highly exposed areas.
