The exterior of my shed has a number of different materials.
The corner posts are green treated fence posts
The cladding is green treated feather edge
I have untreated T&G for the doors and untreated smooth planed whitewood for the roof and door trims.
I've used Ronseal fence paint before and been happy with it on the rough surface treated stuff, but having tried to coat my roof trim with it, I don't think the result is very good after the required 3 coats - it's kind of halfway between properly painted and stained which doesn't look too good imo.
So what's a better way of doing this other than using fence paint? I've also got some deck oil, but not sure how well that will work on the smooth wood?
Note - I've got some SIKA wood preserver which I've treated the untreated wood with, but it doesn't "finish" the wood.
