How to use our One Coat Fence & Shed Protector Concentrate Pouch

Ronseal One Coat Shed & Fence Protector. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Except, this one doesn't come in a tin or a bucket, it comes in a pouch!

Our One Coat Fence and Shed Protector Concentrate provides brilliant protection but how do you use it? We explain how to use our product to get the best results.

Project overview

Easy

Step 1: Empty Pouch into Bucket

Open the Pouch: Open the pouch containing the concentrate.
Pour into Bucket: Empty the entire contents of the pouch into either a clean bucket or an empty bucket of One Coat Shed & Fence Protector.
Refill Pouch with Water: Fill the now-empty pouch with 1 litre of water.
Reseal and Shake: Seal the pouch tightly and shake it vigorously to ensure any remaining mixture is dissolved into the water.

Step 2: Pour 1 Litre of Water from the Pouch into the Bucket

The Pour: Begin by gradually pouring the 1 litre of water from the pouch into the bucket, similar to how you would add ingredients when making a cake. This helps to prevent clumping and ensures a smooth mixture.
Mix Briskly: Once all the water is in the bucket, mix the contents briskly for 1 minute. Use a sturdy mixing tool to ensure everything is well combined.

Step 3: Add 3 More Litres of Water by Repeating Each Step, Three Times

Repeat the Process: Repeat the process of filling the pouch with 1 litre of water and gradually pouring it into the bucket.
Mix Thoroughly: After each addition, mix the contents thoroughly, scraping the bottom of the bucket to ensure no mixture is left unmixed.
Consistency Check: Ensure the mixture is consistent and smooth before adding the next litre of water.

Get ready to paint your fence or shed

Preparation, If you're applying to damp wood, make sure the wood has been drying for at least 5 hours before painting. Make sure it's a warm, dry day (above 10°C). Clean the wood with a stiff brush to get rid of any dirt. If you're spraying it on, always read the sprayer instructions first. Check you're happy with the colour, find a small hidden patch of wood and try it on first.

Application

With a brush

Get loads of Ultimate Fence Life on your brush. Put a thick coat on and if you see any drips, brush them in.

With a sprayer

Pour the liquid into the tank. Pump it up or turn it on and start spraying. When spraying use long, sweeping, horizontal arm movements. Move along the full length of the panel, drop down and do the same again. Overlap by 50% with each pass. This will make sure the whole area is covered with the correct amount of product.

You'll need 2 coats but, if your wood is very weathered, you may need another coat. Leave 4 hours between coats.

Clean up

Take as much product as possible off your brush and then clean it in warm, soapy water.
If you've used a sprayer, follow the clean up instructions in the sprayer instruction manual.

Don't empty any Ultimate Fence Life Concentrate into drains or watercourses. Your local authority may have special ways to get rid of waste product.
