Product information

Product information

Ronseal 5 Year Fence Life+ Shed & Fence Protector provides 5 years of protection for your shed and fence with just two coats. It's simple to use and stands up to all kinds of weather. The first coat protects, and the second coat seals, giving you up to 5 years of deep, rich colour with no peeling or flaking. Midnight Blue gives your fence or shed a deep blue finish that stands out clearly against greenery. It adds a strong, clean colour without being too bold. Fence Life Plus+ can be used on all rough sawn and smooth planed wood whether its new, stained with a similar colour, or even damp.

  • Guarantee - Statutory
  • Suitable for Wood
  • Waterproof
  • Surface Preparation - Wait for a warm, dry day (above 10 °C and not going to rain). Cold, wet weather stops the stain from drying, which could make it wash off. Use a stiff brush to clean off any dirt and previous coatings that are peeling or flaking. Giving your wood a good clean makes sure the stain will soak in and stick properly. You could clean the wood with either a pressure washer (be careful not to damage the wood) or use a suitable fence cleaner. The stain is best applied to wood that is completely dry, however if your wood is damp to touch, then it can still be applied. Cover anything you don't want to get stain on. To check you're happy with the colour, find a small hidden patch of wood to test on before you paint your whole shed or fence.
  • Instructions for Use - To apply with a brush, give it a really good stir. Use something wide, like an old wooden spoon. Get lots of the stain on your brush and put a good thick coat on. If you see any drips, brush them in. Give any drips on plants or paving a wipe with soapy water before the paint dries. On rough sawn wood, you'll need to use 2 coats to get 5 years protection. For smooth planed wood, you'll need to use 3 coats. leave 4 hours between coats. To apply using a sprayer, you'll need to make sure it's not too windy. Give the stain a really good stir, then pour the liquid into the tank. Pump it up or turn it on and start the spraying. Use long, sweeping. horizontal arm movements and move along the full width of the panel. Drop down and do the same again, going over again where you've already sprayed about half. This will make sure the whole area is covered with just the right amount of stain. On rough sawn wood, you'll need to use 2 coats to get 5 years protection. For smooth planed wood, you'll need to use 3 coats. leave 4 hours between coats. Any overspray should be cleaned up straight away with soapy water before it dries.

Could be a thicker paint

Needed to apply 4/5 coats over a previous mid brown paint. It’s a watery paint, so you need to mask up well and put down a lot of plastic sheeting. Otherwise a really nice colour. It would get a 5 if the paint was thicker.

Solid coverage

Bought a 5l tub to try out the colour Midnight blue, was very happy with the coverage and tint.

Deep colour

Great coverage and lovely colour, really happy with the product.

Blab - 2 / 5 - 23/07/2026

Stain not paint

Starts out very light and not midnight blue. It eventually darkens but this should be advertised as a stain, it is very watery and the coverage is not fantastic.

Does what it says on the container.

Great product at a reasonable price. Does what it says on the plastic pot!

Bobster - 2 / 5 - 07/07/2026

Colour discrepancy

The colour once applied is significantly lighter than that shown on the exterior of the product. Not as it shows on the tin!!
