Hi all, we've bought an ex-display Wendy House from a Shed Company. The house has been out all season, and needs treating sooner rather than later.
Since it's a play-house we'd like to paint it in nice kid's colours, but it appears that the only good preservatives are in dull fence colours.
Talking to the paint-expert in B & Q Depot, he said we could use a nice Ronseal colour, the apply a clear varnish. We don't really want shiny walls however.
The Ronseal brochure says that their "Garden Makeover" paints include a wax preservative.
Do you real experts out there think that a wax-based colourant needs a top-coat of varnish?
We'd like to get 10 years out of the Wendy house, and would be happy to treat it annually.
Cheers,
Ian.
