Any solvent-based wood preservative can be used on wooden fence panels meaning that it doesn’t necessarily have to be labelled as a ‘shed and fence preservative’. Solvent-based preservers are generally absorbed easier by fence timbers than water-based products, meaning deeper penetration in to the timber panels. Solvent-based wood preservatives are available in clear and coloured formulations from brands such as Ronseal, Cuprinol and Sadolin. Find out about a range of fence stains and colours here.

What the Pros are Saying

Although many (not all) wood preservatives contain a small amount of wax, they don’t always provide long term weather protection. To seal in the wood preserver and provide the best all-round wood protection, garden fences treated with a fence preservative can usually be treated with an exterior wood oil, suitable for garden fences, once the preserver has fully dried, usually after 72 hours. This will help to keep fence panels supple and nourished whilst protecting against water ingress and weathering. Some external wood oils also contain UV filters that will help to preserve the fence colour for longer.

Although wood preservers are safe for man, plants and animals when fully dry, they are very harmful to aquatic systems and should be kept well away from garden ponds, streams, drains and other water courses. Pets and children should be kept away from the liquid and freshly treated fences until they are dry. Not all wood preservers or stains are suitable for spraying due to their viscosity. Many garden pump sprayers are only suitable for thin liquids like water. There are however a couple of sprayers that are specifically designed for spraying garden fence preservers and stains such as those below.
