How to prepare old garden wood:
Wood that’s already been painted or has been left outside for a while should be quickly sanded down.
Wipe down the surface with white spirit.
Mould or algae should be cleaned away and rotten wood should either be cut away or hardened.
Preparing brick or stone:
Brush away any dust or debris.
Preparing terracotta:
Sand the surface until any glaze is properly removed.
Apply water to the terracotta and if it beads, keep sanding to remove the glaze.
Repeat step two until the water no longer beads.
Preparing metal:
Metal surfaces should be primed before applying the Garden Paint.
Grey primer should be used for darker colours and a white primer used for lighter colours.
Application:
Stir the paint well.
