Fence care with Cuprinol

Something we can collectively agree on about summer is that everyone should spend more time outdoors. If you don’t enjoy being idle whilst outside, why not give your fence the love it truly deserves?

With the price of fences and other relevant materials hitting new highs each day, making sure your fences go the distance to not only protect your property, but reflect them too is incredibly important.

At Paint Direct, we have an incredible range of paints that will help you to transform, revive and protect your fence. Read on to find out how you can protect your fences against rot, extend its lifespan and give your garden a new lease of life. 

Choosing a colour for you

Several years ago, you would have been limited to various shades of brown, green and black but now, paints and stains are now available in a wide variety of colours to suit any colour scheme making deciding a colour quite tricky. 

Specially developed to protect sheds, fences and other garden wood, Garden Shades from Cuprinol offers such a range of colour that breathes new life into your exteriors while still allowing natural textures to shine through.

Fear not, we’ve narrowed it down to just five colours from Cuprinol’s Garden Shades range that will help you to feel like it’s summer all year round! 

Whatsmore, Garden Shades can be applied with a brush or spray, and is even suitable for applying on brick, stone and terracotta, so you can use any leftover paint to upcycle plantpots, an old picnic table or carry the colour on throughout the garden. 

And it was all yellow!

Bright like the summer sun, a yellow fence would definitely help to keep the summer feeling alive all year round! 

Cuprinol’s Dazzling Yellow will do just that for you!

Yellow is an excellent colour choice for a fence because it can take a standard wooden fence and make it look energetic, playful and give out positive vibes. Its brightness reflects happiness and joy which will leave you smiling every time you look outside on a rainy day.

Reliable like that famed 1998 hit, Curprinol’s Garden Shades in Iris will transform your standard fence into a boundary that exudes sophistication and elegance. The deep blue shade will work really well if your fence has weathered, aged or been painted before! 

Let the light in!

Back to the lighter shades, painting your fence with Cuprinol’s Sweet Pea paint will refresh your fences and help to reflect light back into your garden! 

A subtle pink, Sweet Pea is a colour that you can easily incorporate into other areas of your garden as you can use Curprinol’s Garden Shades on various surfaces. It’s the perfect opportunity to use any leftover paint from painting your fence to give some attention to any wooden garden furniture!
