If you’re using water-based, exterior wood paint rather than stain, it will have to be thinned to the consistency of single cream to pass through any sprayer.

Stir your stain or paint thoroughly to ensure the tint (that colours the fence) is not set on the bottom. Yes, it’s a bore, but for a clean job, it’s time well spent.

Have a large cardboard blind ready to put on the top of the fence, holding planting behind it as you work to avoid damaging over-spray.
