Outdoor paints to improve the garden

 
25 May 2010

Homeowners who have invested in a glazed kitchen extension or lean-to conservatory may be looking forward to a summer of enjoying views of the garden.

Those hoping to improve their outdoor space may be interested in using Earthborn's range of outdoor paints to spruce up garden sheds, fences and other timber constructions.

The specially-designed material allows the wood to breathe while repelling rainwater and is available in eggshell and satin varnish finishes.

A total of 36 colours, including seagull, flower pot and fresh air, mean that homeowners have a wide choice of options for brightening up the view from their conservatory.

Meanwhile, garden owners with masonry walls could find the company's Silicate Masonry Paint and Primer useful.

As they are water-based and VOC-free, the products are environmentally-friendly and safe to use, while still creating a waterproof, weather resistant barrier.

In other news, DIY tools manufacturer Black & Decker is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year.
