An ornamental garden gate in softwood. I gave it a few coats of

coat of Farrow and Ball exterior gloss which to my surprise is water
based. Anyway it doesn't go on, won't film at all.

The undercoat is matt and was rubbed down a bit so advice to key the
surface better will be pointless. Is there a solution to this? or just
buy oil gloss?

I gave waited a while then gave it a coat of some other oil eggshell and
waited again and finally the water paint is sort of going on. It will be
okay.

Thanks all
