Ask your QuestionHi,
I have used Johnstone’s Garden Colours paint on my decking without realising that it was not suitable until after completing the first coat. Will I be able to paint over this with a proper decking paint it will the new product fail over time because the Johnstone’s product is underneath?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks All

I would paint it with decking paint and hopefully you get a few more years out of the decking before it’s needs replacing"
