Mine isn't Cuprinol (it's Wilco's) after two years no sign of it washing off the concrete, though it has in places washed/peeled off the corners of the fence.
I've a steel bench outside, SW side of the house. Put on a 4mm top (the old,
1.5mm one took 20 years to rust through), painted it with Aldidl metal paint and the bright sivery finish was just too much. Went over it with 2 coats of B&Q green fence paint and, apart from scraped bits, it's still good after about 2 years.
Next door neighbour sprayed all his fence panels and concrete posts with fence paint around 5 years ago. It didn't look that too good after he had finished and now the posts look blotchy. Not a good look!

It looks pretty good, better than grey, and lasts about 18 months before it needs a recoat. With a sprayer and a brush it took me 3 hours to do all 20 panels and 2 x 4 litre tins of Ronseal.
I?ve done all mine and it looks beautiful the comments I get is amazing you can do anything with fence paint
I did mine many years ago and it?s looks bloody lovely the comments I get are amazing abs it?s way cheaper than masonry paint shame I can?t send you a pic
A few years back a neighbour had one of those fence paint spray guns. Everything was sprayed, wooden fence, concrete posts and gravel boards, the path beneath the fence, the grass and the white painted brickwork where the fence joined the house. Some of the results can still be seen :). The fence paint soon started to wash from the concrete leaving it "splotchy". In truth the paint probably washed off the wood at the same rate but the result is harder to see.
Yes, I'm sure you can.... (Humour him)

concrete post take it ok and look good!, It needs to be worked in a little with a brush rather than a spray.It fades a bit after 2/3 years but not back to white.Im happy with the results because it takes away the stark /harsh look .Mine are dark brown and look like the timber panels.
