Default Fence and Shed Spraying

Have just completed spraying my fences with the B&Q Sprayer.

VERY fast and no problems with blockages etc. I used B&Q's own stuff that
is designed to be sprayed - apparently the non-spraying stuff clogs the
sprayer.

However - the spray does tend to go every which way with even the slightest
breeze so would suggest covering all plants in the vicinity and avoid
spraying near the top of the fence, especially if your neighbour has nice
new decking !!!!!

Default Fence and Shed Spraying

I had specks all over my glasses and head and clothes, and on the
neighbours white upvc dg units, and on the greenhouse.

More of a pain clearing up than the speed of doing it.

I think if the pressure is to high it atomises the fluid, whereas you
need the liquid applied just below atomisation, ie smaller drops as
opposed to mist.

Have you seen the ad on telly re cuprinol spraying. Obviously a set up
and against advertising standards.

However - the spray does tend to go every which way with even the slightest
breeze so would suggest covering all plants in the vicinity and avoid
spraying near the top of the fence, especially if your neighbour has nice
new decking !!!!!
