Weekend DIY with Mark Rayner – 64
Corrugated iron fence
Other ideas:For a lower sheen finish, paint the
fence with Resene Lumbersider instead.
It’s easy to brighten up a tired
corrugated iron fence using a fresh Resene gloss finish.
You will need:• Bucket• Corrugated iron fence (ours was previously
painted with acrylic house paint)• Garden hose with clean running water• Mineral turps for cleaning brushes• Paintbrushes• Paint stirrer
• Resene Enamacryl tinted to Resene Sponge• Resene Galvo One• Resene Paint pot• Resene Paint Prep and Housewash• Rubber gloves• Sandpaper• Stiff-bristled brush
To get the look:Mark painted the
garden bench with Resene Enamacryl tinted to Resene
Woodstock.
Step oneLightly sand the painted fence to ‘key’ the surface and remove any light areas of rust. (If there are any signs of mould, treat with Resene Moss & Mould Killer.)
Step twoMix one part Resene Paint Prep and Housewash to three parts clean water.
Step threeWearing rubber gloves, scrub the fence well with the solution using a stiff-bristled brush. Rinse well with clean water and allow to dry.
Step fourCarefully stir the Resene Galvo One.
Step fiveUse Resene Galvo One to spot prime prepared areas of corrosion and bare metal. Allow to dry.
Step sixCarefully stir the Resene Enamacryl tinted to Resene Sponge.
Step sevenPaint the fence with two coats of Resene Enamacryl tinted to Resene Sponge allowing two hours for each coat to dry.
Top tipFor new precoated steel, prime with Resene Pre-Coated Steel Primer before overcoating.
