Painting decking help
Hello, can anyone advise me on painting on decks please. I had my decking done last year and this year I wanted to paint. Normally, I use Ronseal Fence paint on my fences, Dark wood in colour. Therefore, I painted my fence with it and used the same one on my decking. I did this so all looks the same, Dark wood in colour. As I was clearing the paints after finishing the whole project, I realised on the tin that not to be used on decks. I have googled it since then and basically I have done a mistake in doing this without realising. Therefore, can anyone advise please if I need to buy another product and which brand to use on top of the paint I have already used so it protects my decking? Thank you for the time in reading and advising.
