Cuprinol Recensioni 

I got through about 3 large cans of this stuff hoping the fence would last for 5 years without maintenance. Expensive job! It didn't last even 2 years. It took weeks of hard labour painting this on. Don't waste your time and money. I'm sticking with good old fashioned cheap wood preserve (Creosote), which at least is absorbed into the wood to provide weather protection. Cuprinol is a paint and starts to visibly wear off in 1 year. It therefore provides no protection in terms of preserving the wood.

I wish I had read the reviews here first rather than believed the 5 year guarantee! The company should not be allowed to make such false claims. Fortunately I used the dark brown so re-doing it later with Creosote won't be as awful as if it were a green or a colour. Recommendation is: stay away from this rubbish!

I have used Cuprinol for many years . I have bought three cans of white daisy all from Amazon in two diff orders and it’s rubbish compared to the cottage cream I bought from a diy store. I have spent £200 on 4 wooden planters for my front of house which needs a make over and hoping they would last a long time but not with white daisy on them !!!! Like watercolour paint . No waterproof feel to it at all and I’ve done three coats . I have just painted 6 panels also in fresh rosemary and even though runnier than it used to be it did cover in two coats ! I am now looking at other makes ! Shame

Painted my fences last year Ducksback herring grey looked great at the time but soon as the weather changed so did the fence colour it started showing the wood through the grey. I put this down to Maybe my wife hadn’t put enough paint on so this year I painted the panels the ducks back seamed to suck into the panels and had good adhesion and coverage but now a month on I’m back to where I started it’s as if it’s just washing off again so back to wood showing again if I was using a cheap eBay 20l for a fiver then I would accept it but you pay a premium for these brands so you should get a premium product otherwise you might as well paint it with cheap emulsion if it’s only going to last till first rain fall. Just for reference the panels where 1 1/2 years old to allow any treatments to weather and settle down before painting

Bought Cuprinol garden shades in dusky gem opened both tins today to paint garden fence and it was just water any paint I tried to stir up looked like had split, it splashed over my trousers as running down the handle of stick that I used to stir it. Had used a different colour summer damson yesterday and it was fine Just normal paint.

Cuprinol fence harvest brown applied to fence and left to dry came back following day to give second coat to find it had all run making my fence look terrible very disappointed with this product it don’t do what it says on the tin now I’m left with a terrible looking fence due to this paint

Studied all Cuprinol shades before choosing Fresh Rosemary to paint outdoor garden gate. Shocked, as the colour looks blue, not anywhere close to the shade on the tin! In fact, the colour is exactly like another shade, Coastal Mist! Not happy with the colour as we wanted more of a green not blue! Really frustrating!!

Used Cuprinol Forget-me-not to update our garden table. I rubbed down the wood and applied a good primer. Gave the table three coats with Cuprinol, but the primer is showing through. Gave at least two days between each coat. Today, I placed a plastic basin on the table, and when I removed it, bits of paint chipped off! I have used Cuprinol before on a similar project with no issues. The paint is watery. Having taken hours to prep the job, and three days with the top coats, I am going to have to redo completely.
Hugely disappointed ☹️

on the table

Autumn brown shed and fence protector now very thin and fades very rapidly after 2 coats.
Used to last at least 2 years, now fade within weeks.
what's going on ?

Goes on well and seems to give a lovely finish but I've painted about 20 panels in ducksback and it's coming off in numerous places after less than 2 years. The panels I painted it on were all brand new and bone dry (done during dry spells during the summer). I thoroughly brushed off any sawdust etc that you get with new panels before painting too, so can only conclude that the product isn't upto the task which for a major brand who specialises in this sort of product is a real let down. Definitely won't last the 5 years they claim so if you read this before purchasing I would recommend looking at other options

Cuprinol garden paint, bought a week ago to paint summerhouse. Stirred it but still like water going on. Splits and is nothing like the quality of previous years. Won't be buying it again. Two coats but same colour as previous but can still see marks through it. Waste of time and money.

One the 14th I submitted photos of split paint on summerhouse, barcode and batch as requested by cuprinol, voucher being sent to replace paint as a gesture of goodwill, hoping this will go on better. Thank you for a prompt response to customer issue.

So disappointed this time using it about 6/7 years ago I used this brand to paint my fence rainbow and the paint was amazing and one small 1 liter pot done a large panel but this time using it one tin dosnt even cover the panel once and what is on there is going to need a good 3 coats minimum even though it’s the exact same colour going on top won’t be buying again now they have changed the ingredients of the paint recommend trying a different brand this is now like water

Bought Cuprinol natural stone 2.5 litre garden shades in B & Q to paint the inside of our timber summer house. This paint was ridiculous it’s like water and just seems to split as your painting it on, no matter that I wiped the brush it still runs down the walls and I needed 5 coats to cover it. I won’t be buying this again.

We bought 4 tins of ducks back dusted Aloe and two of the tins are a lovely green colour the other two have turned out blue so I now have half my garden green and the other half blue, I thought the paint would dry the same colour but it hasn’t so I now have 18 fence panels that I have to repaint as it looks dreadful, how can paints be different colours when you have bought all the same colour, i am gutted I have to repaint, dreadful paint

Cuprinol Garden shades, Seagrass, recent purchase, I have used C-Shades in other colours for many years and found it durable and trust worthy! Recent new tin and the paint is thin to watery, dripped like mad, yes two coats definitely required. Previously I have been able to let the paint dry and apply a second coat the next day? Applied in excellent conditions this last weekend. The recent rain has tested it - useless!! Not holding water off, it has bubbled and peeled, the door will have to be completely redone.
Walls of the shed done in a C-Shades I have had for 2 years and that has done an excellent job!
I have contacted Dulux with my complaint and photographs.
I will use another paint next time, extremely disappointed.

complained about watery primrose white
after an investigation i was sent a voucher to buy a replacement product.
good work from deepa in customer service.

Disappointed with marketing / communication on product ranges.

Cuprinol pebble trail is almost impossible to find in store anywhere. Whilst it’s not clear on any of there distributors website either. Searching around everywhere to find this to find out this specific product is not stocked in stock. The prices also range considerably, I mean, from £15 to £32 for the same 2.5L version. That’s really bad.

Horrendous paint don’t buy it!
It states 5 year guaranteed!
I painted my fence in spring last year, in the summer it was looking awful and now it looks like a 10 year old fence. £25 x 3 tins isn’t cheap, but most annoying thing is wasting my time prepping and painting. I’ve painted my other fence with Johnson’s and it still looks like new a year later.

Absolutely shocking paint very watery this used to be so nice and thick and smooth I’ve wasted more withe paint being watery I bought good quality brushes but lots of drips glad I placed dust sheets down there was more on the dust sheets I’m seriously thinking of contacting Trading Standards this not what it says it is on the tins

Cuprinol forest green duckback 2024 is much lighter than 2023. It means its impossible to catch new timber replaced slats with the same colour.
Any solutions anyone?

Well I’m truly & absolutely shocked & massively disappointed in the Cuprinol silver copse fence paint wow just wow spent hours painting my fence with it over this last week & worked tirelessly after work painting it & to wake up this morning after a rainy night to walking down stairs this morning to look outside in the garden & half of it has ran off the panels I’m lost for words tbh 😡😡
It says it lasts 5 years on the tin it hasn’t lasted 5 days
I don’t get a lot of time to waste due to other things happening & commitments so this has really done my head in
Any one at Cuprinol wanna contact me please feel free ….
