Exterior Wood Paints – Durable Weatherproof Paints
Proper preparation is essential before applying exterior wood paint. Timber should be clean, dry, and free from previous coatings that could affect adhesion. Use a suitable wood cleaner or degreaser to remove contaminants like sap, oils, mould, or algae. Sanding is usually recommended, especially for new or heavily weathered wood, to create a key for the paint to bond. Bare timber, whether softwood or hardwood, may require a dedicated primer - particularly if it’s tannin-rich, pressure-treated, or prone to movement. Primers also help unify the finish and improve coverage on porous or uneven surfaces.
Paint should always be applied in suitable weather conditions, ideally when dry and between 10–25°C. Avoid painting during high humidity or when rain is expected within 24 hours. Choose the right application method - brushes offer precision on small trims or frames, while rollers and sprayers are better for large areas like sheds or cladding. Allow the correct drying time between coats, and avoid applying paint too thickly, which can lead to cracking or poor curing. Once fully dry, painted surfaces will resist peeling, water ingress, and UV exposure for several years, depending on the product selected. For ongoing protection, inspect timber annually and recoat when needed to ensure a lasting finish.
Exterior Paint FAQs
Can exterior wood paints be used on pressure-treated wood?
Yes, but ensure the wood has fully dried out and weathered. Some treatments repel paint unless properly prepared.
Do I need to use a topcoat over exterior wood paint?
Most modern products are self-sealing, but specialist systems may require a clear topcoat for added weather protection. We offer a range of topcoats and other wood finishes to suit every project.
What’s the best paint for wood exposed to coastal environments?
Look for high-performance marine-grade paints or coatings with strong resistance to salt spray and high humidity.
Can I paint exterior MDF or engineered wood panels?
Only if they are exterior-grade and have been properly primed and sealed to prevent water penetration or swelling.
Is there a minimum temperature for applying exterior wood paint?
Yes, most paints should not be applied below 5°C. Check the technical datasheet for each product’s temperature range.
