Spray painting a fence involves a specific process to ensure a smooth and even finish, here's a step-by-step of the process:
Preparation: Before starting the spray painting process, make sure the fence is clean and free of any dirt, debris, or loose paint. It is mentioned that the fence was pressure cleaned, which is an excellent first step to ensure a clean surface for painting.
Primer Application: The next step is to apply one coat of Acratex Roof Primer MX to the fence. The primer is essential as it helps to create a suitable surface for the topcoat to adhere to and promotes better paint adhesion. Use the appropriate spray equipment to apply the primer evenly across the fence.
Topcoat Application: After the primer has dried, it's time to apply two coats of AcraTex Roof Membrane. This will be the actual paint that provides the desired color and protection for the fence. The two coats ensure a consistent and durable finish. The paint used in this case is 60 liters, and the tip size is 310, which indicates the type of spray gun and nozzle size used for application.
Surface and Paint Compatibility: It is mentioned that the surface being painted is "Colorbond." It's essential to ensure that the paint being used is compatible with the surface material. AcraTex Roof Membrane is typically used for roof applications, but if it's suitable for the Colorbond surface, it should work well for the fence too.
Drying Time: Allow each coat of primer and topcoat to dry thoroughly as per the manufacturer's recommendations. This will ensure that the paint adheres properly and that the next coat is applied to a stable surface.
Clean-up: After completing the painting process, clean the spray equipment thoroughly with the appropriate solvent or cleaner to prevent paint from clogging the nozzle or damaging the equipment.
Remember, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for each product, including recommended drying times and application techniques. Proper preparation and attention to detail will help ensure a successful and long-lasting spray painting result on the fence. Хобби

Thank you
Amazing job! For new cypress picket fence would you recommend using low sheen or semi gloss paint?
Gloss is must .
what tip size do you like using for colourbond? and do you
use the same for a colourbond roof?
You need to watch video to the end
I did mate, hard to hear you whilst spraying. I think you said 310?
yes an 415 for tin roofs @@beneast5216
Is that a steel or aluminium fence?
steel fence
You didn’t sand it to prep?
Power washed before painting.
Might peel in a couple of year if no prep
