Wood treating/staining existing sheds/fences is hands down the most demoralising DIY job I've ever done.

4 coats on the shed and still going.

The fence panels are going on a back burner.

you're doing it wrong

In what way? And what's the solution?

The first coat simply disappears when you apply it. Then each successive coat builds up.

The existing colour is a dark red and the new colour is greyish. The weathered side is very dry and malnourished. The protected side has been much easier.
