Treating Fence panels.

[dennisb66]

I am going to use an electric paint sprayer on my fence panels. Which in your opinion is the best wood treatment to use in a sprayer.

Cuprinol, whatever you use make sure you get a spray-able version, not all treatments are spay-able.

I agree Ratter, I purchessed the regular Cuprinol thinking it could be put in an electric sprayer all it did was clog the nozzle so I had to paint the shed by Hand.

If it is a fence with a neighbour, do talk to the neighbour first as sprayed preserver can be even messier on the other side than painted and the spray and also travel a bit.

Yes I fell foul of that one when I sprayed my fence a few years ago, had some left over in the sprayer so decided to spray the open slatted gate on a windy day.
Took me ages to get it off my car when I noticed it the next day, at least it was my car.

Did mine with spray but had other half go on t'other side with a large piece of hardboard held up to stop it migrating.....he did look suitably tanned thereafter...LOL...

Your neighbours will not be pleased with the coloured drips that run down their side!

Prepare for war.

Sorry, but I hate 'easy option gardening'. A decent 'creosote brush', a little sit-upon, nice sunny day with the radio on...........a good job done.

I agree with woofgang. Last year I painted mine with a brush. My neighbour did his with a sprayer. He did say he was going to do it but I didn't realise how far it would go.
It went all over my lights . Patio and table. Horrible golden spots.

No neighbours on other side so no problem there,however ,I do have both sides of 8 fence panels to treat.

I'm now waiting for a warm day with no wind !!
