Product Information

Please note: When working with Resincoat Garden Shed Paint, it is possible for you to wash your tools, brushes and rollers with warm, soapy water once you have completed your project.

A sample pot size is provided in 0.5kg, which provides approximately 5m² (depending on the porosity of the surface) Stir the product thoroughly, before pouring contents into your chosen spray gun. The formula should be diluted down with up to 10% water. Refer to the sprayer user guide for full instructions before every use. As mentioned above, my favourite paint to use for this type of project is Resincoat Outdoor Patio Paint. So with that to hand, give the paint a good stir and then start cutting in along the edges with the masonry brush. It’s best to work in areas of around 1m2 so cut in for 1x1m before using the roller to apply a thin layer of paint within that area.

Depending on the colour that you’re painting over and the colour of paint you’re using, you’ll typically need to apply a further 1-2 coats. Once the first coat has been applied leave to dry. Your brush or roller can be cleaned in tepid water ready to be reused for subsequent coats. Important: Apply only in dry conditions - ideally the coating should avoid rainfall for 2 days where possible. Without using a paving sealer, ordinary masonry paint will need touching up far more frequently. Of course, it’s not going to last a lifetime so keep this in mind before painting concrete slabs with regular masonry paint. What Paint Should You Use? Once you’ve applied the first coat, you’ll need to wait 24 hours before adding a second, hence the need for at least 3 days of nice weather. Step 4: Seal the paint

Apply only in dry conditions - ideally the coating should avoid rainfall for 2 days where possible. 7 days should be allowed before jet washing. Make sure you wait for the patio to completely dry before proceeding to the next step. Once the patio is completely dry, you’ll have a ready-primed surface on which to paint. Step 4: Painting Resincoat shed paint should be touch dry within 4 hours. Once coat 1 has been applied, leave to dry for 4-6 hours & repeat for coat 2 if required. Once you’ve applied your Pliolite Masonry Paint and you’ve left it for 24 hours to fully harden, you can apply the clear patio sealer.In my experience, there are two methods of painting concrete patios that will produce impressive, long-lasting results. Method One – Using Specific Concrete Patio Paint and Primer The patio should start frothing up – this is the acid reacting with alkaline and thus neutralising your patio.

As with method one, cut in sections of 1m2 with a masonry brush and then apply the paint with a long-pile roller in thin layers. It’s entirely possible to use regular masonry paint to paint your patio slabs although you will need to take additional steps to ensure it withstands the elements and regular foot traffic. Currently, greys are all the rage due to their timeless look and ability to work with any given garden scheme. Choose a lighter grey such as Goose Grey for a more modern look or something on the darker side such as Anthracite Grey if you don’t want to worry about the upkeep of the patio so much as it’ll make it difficult to notice as the patio gets dirtier. Using a watering can or something similar, apply the Etch and Clean product evenly across your patio. Jet washing should be performed on a fan setting at roughly 30cm distance from surface or with a dedicated rotary patio cleaner. Do not use jet patterns or turbo type lances.

Now we’ve established that you CAN use regular masonry paint, let’s look at the paint that you SHOULD use. Please note: When working with Resincoat Outdoor Patio Paint, it is possible for you to wash your tools, brushes and rollers with warm, soapy water once you have completed your project. My preferred concrete paint, and the one that I’ve tried and tested many times, is Resincoat Outdoor Patio Paint. This concrete flag paint comes in an attractive matt finish which not only looks good but also ensures you don’t make your patio more slippery after painting it thus saving you from potential injuries. When it comes to ideas and colour schemes, it’s often more important to consider what you personally would like to achieve with your garden space.

It's important to ensure that the surface is completely clean before the application of the paint. Jet washing should be performed on a fan setting at roughly 30cm distance from surface or with a dedicated rotary patio cleaner. Do not use jet patterns or turbo type lances. Apply your first coat with a brush or roller (start at the corner of painting area and working inwards). Please note: the paint should be applied thinly. It’s best to use 2 coats of the sealer as that will give your newly painted patio added protection from dirt, oil and rain. Pros and Cons of Painting Concrete Patios

Available in a wide variety of colours, pet and wildlife safe. Our Patio Paint is simple to apply, creating a beautiful finish to your outdoor flooring.

When the patio is fully dried and you’re expecting decent weather for the next few days, you can start painting. Alternatively, Johnstone’s Pliolite Masonry Paint is a decent option due to the fact that you can tint the colour to anything you want as opposed to Resincoat who only offers 6 different colours. Once applied ensure the floor is not subject to any contamination as this could cause the coating to fail. If you’re going for a complete redesign of your entire garden, you have a lot of freedom in choosing colour schemes. If you’re just painting your patio then it might be a good idea to consider how your chosen colour will integrate with the rest of your garden. Patio paint is meant to be applied in thin layers so I’d highly recommend thinning out the product with about 10-20% clean water. Once you’ve done that, give it a good stir for 5 minutes.
