Lovely texture and colour
Painted fence posts with this paint, and it went on very well and covered very well too. We plan painting our new fence with this paint. It is a really nice colour.

Great paint
I was looking for a colour that resembled the blues used in Mediterranean islands. This was perfect, much brighter than it looked on the tin, so perfect match for what I was looking for. It goes on great . Very happy with purchase

Bringing my garden to life
So happy I went with the blue , it’s a beautiful colour and brings my garden to life . Went on really well and only one coat needed . My neighbour went for a green and let’s say is a little green herself with jealousy.

Good Quality Paint
I bought this paint for an allotment shed. Its a lovely colour and good quality. Your first coat looks like it does not have a good coverage at all but once it dries out, it works out very well. 2 coats covered the front of the shed and half of both sides where I have compost bins anyway. So, It was just a perfect amount for my case.

Lovely colour. Fast and easy cover and really quick drying (even in our summer weather!). Really made a difference to the potting shed.

Hello Bev.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for Johnstone's - Garden Colours Paint - Island Lake - 2.5L.
As long as the paint is allowed to fully dry then there is no reason why it cannot be used.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hello Shuz.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for Johnstone's - Garden Colours Paint - Island Lake - 2.5L.
No, this product is not suitable for decking, the coating is not designed for foot traffic.
I would advise that it is also too early in the season for any exterior wood painting. There will be too much moisture in the surface.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hi There
Johnstone's Garden Paint 2.5L - Island Lake
That will depend on the size of your shed and how many coats of paint you use. On average, a litre of paint covers about 10 to 12 square metres with one coat. For a medium-sized shed, you might need about 3 to 5 litres of paint for two coats.
Thank you for using Q&A

TIPS: Apply thin, even coats of your chosen Garden Colours, if you are aiming for a bolder colour, additional coats may be required.
