  • Cheers. That makes sense as well as making me realise that I've only ever overpainted with outdoor oil based stuff.

    I guess the question is; if I want black coloured trellis (a opposed to a lovely shiny glass black finish) would 2 coats of black oil paint do this sufficiently?

    I still have some black oil based paint so I guess the best thing is to try on the back of one of the fence panels. Drying time will be a fucker though won't it.

    Edit: any experience of Bedec Barn Paint?

  • Cuprinol do testers. Maybe try their Garden Shades black on the back of your trellis?
    For clarity, I do not work for Cuprinol but I have found it better than Ronseal. It covers much better.

    Forest Green and Silver Copse - one coat. Please disregard the cat claw marks on the green.
