What to use: Cabot's Timbercolour Deck & Exterior Paint
Why you should use it: Give your exterior timber surfaces a whole new look and feel with Timbercolour. This opaque paint provides excellent dirt and stain resistance whilst also nourishing the timber, meaning your exterior surfaces will look newer for longer. If you want to enhance the look of timber you already have, a decking oil may be more suitable, but for everything else – this does the job!
How it works: Cabot's Timber colour Deck & Exterior Paint is a premium acrylic self-priming exterior paint. It’s formulated to provide exceptional durability to all exterior timber surfaces and decking, and provides excellent dirt and stain resistance.
Prepare
Application
Allow to dry
Once the first coat has been applied, allow it to dry for two hours. Once this has happened, apply a second coat using the same method.
Apply more coats
Previously unpainted timber may need three coats, and some colours may need more coats to achieve full opacity.
Admire your handiwork
And just like that – you’re done! Your exterior timber looks pretty as a picture!
