Giving this 4 stars, not 5, purely because it comes out a different colour depending on the wood being painted. Originally bought it to paint our new fence but after one inconspicuous post it looked more dark brown than the grey we were expecting so we abandoned the job. Having bought 2 tins at over £35 a tin, we ended up using it on the decking and new shed instead. They look fabulous, however you wouldn’t think we’d used the same colour paint for both. Colour variations aside, the paint is a good consistency and easy to apply (we used a brush, not a spray). We bought 2 x 2.5 litre tins to do a fence that was 20m long by 2m high. Because of the absorbency of the rough, pressure treated timber, I’m not convinced 2 tins would’ve been enough for one coat on both sides of the fence. Can’t speak for long term durability as it’s only been on the decking a month but no peeling or flaking so far!
