Selected Ronseal One Coat Fence Life Fence & Shed Treatment 12L £9 Click & Collect in Limited Locations @ B&Q

It's been 2 months and ours hasn't faded. It actually went a bit darker when it dried in the sun. We have had a lot of rain and some really heavy down pours but it still looks great. Just follow the instructions. It's only been 2 months but good so far and makes a lot of difference to the look of the fence. Creosote is banned for general use in the UK as it's so damaging to health and the environment

this stuff's kinda rubbish. 2 coats needed for any decent sort of coverage, especially if you want it even remotely even and without patches. It's nice to work with and easy to use, but as it's super water-based it gets sucked into rough-wood really quickly, making it quite difficult to spread far and you do end up using a fair amount. I guess that's kinda the point, to soak in and add protection (and colour) but it's worth mentioning that it's not an oily formula that spreads a long way.

I'd say get double the amount you think you'll need and go from there - worst case is you'll have spares for patches for next spring

Washes off in light rain. Garbage

Ordered, thanks OP

One coat went on fine for us on previously unstained panels. Doesn't go far though - nowhere near the coverage you'd expect & isn't a quick job as the wood really soaks this stuff up. Re-evaluating doing the whole fence in this given it'll need re-doing again in a couple of years at best & more criticism than recommendations for it.
