This was midway through painting our playhouse using Cuprinol garden shades and a Wagner sprayer. Not quite the same as it was properly planed / primed timber but gives an idea.

I'd certainly recommend a sprayer with 15 panels!

Does anyone have pictures of their fence panels with the shades on?
When I first put in some of the fence panels they were obviously light orangey brown, it offset the colour the grass to give a pleasent open space. I feel the black, just has a weird enclosure feel to it...
Would love to see some examples of brighter colours on the panels.

I have always preferred a dark brown as I find it blends well with the grass for a more natural look. I've already posted a pic of my current garden with the ronseal dark oak colour. Here is my old house fence (I put this in shortly after I moved in, and looked the same after 7 years!) with cuprinol's rich oak colour, which I prefer to the ronseals similar colour.
