Cuprionol fence paint on concrete?

If you re-coat at some stage, the concrete pores may be now blocked and it may try and form a skin like a paint would and that might not stick well. Should be several years down the line by then and you might even have moved house! thank you for letting me know, i won't try then. -- |

The colour on concrete and wooden fence is still same (I painted them about In January/February 2015) and there is no fading on both either. Cuprionol fence paint is a good product. -- |

Mine isn't Cuprinol (it's Wilco's) after two years no sign of it washing off the concrete, though it has in places washed/peeled off the corners of the fence. |

Mine isn't Cuprinol (it's Wilco's) after two years no sign of it washing off the concrete, though it has in places washed/peeled off the corners of the fence. I've a steel bench outside, SW side of the house. Put on a 4mm top (the old, 1.5mm one took 20 years to rust through), painted it with Aldidl metal paint and the bright sivery finish was just too much. Went over it with 2 coats of B&Q green fence paint and, apart from scraped bits, it's still good after about 2 years. -- Peter. The gods will stay away whilst religions hold sway |

It didn't look that too good after he had finished and now the posts look blotchy. Not a good look! -- mailto: news {at} admac {dot] myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
