Hello,
I have three rough-sawn fence panels on the side of my front garden and, as you can see from the photo, each one is a different colour. I would like to paint them all so that they look the same colour.
However, from the jobs I have done before with paint designed for rough-sawn wood, I know that this type of paint doesn’t cover the wood completely. If I use this type of paint, I’m concerned that the panels’ original colours will still be somewhat visible underneath the layer of paint I use and, in the end, the panels still won’t look the same colour, even if I use the same paint on all three.
So, does anyone know of some suitable paint for rough-sawn wood that will cover the panels well enough so that they all look the same colour when painted?

For the cost of "paint" I would change all 3 panels then paint them.

It may be a bit more expensive than you think. None of these panels are a standard size. Plus, two of them have been changed recently, so I’m not keen on changing them again!
