Bought to freshen up the front of the house over the bargeboards after a few years of weathering.
What can I say, went on quickly and evenly, dried pretty quickly but not so fast we couldn't finese the drips out. Yes it's more expensive than some other exterior paints but given it's ease of application and the bright white fresh finish it was certainly worth it.
I'd also say buy a new paintbrush and be prepared to throw it away after the job. It does clean out but after a few hours painting the front of the house the brush was starting to solidify at the bristle roots, and it's easier to throw away and spend time cleaning deeply

Sadolin Woodshield
Posted 13 March 2013
I have been using Woodshield on exterior woodwork for about 20 years and don't use anything else now.
Easy prep, easy on,and easy to clean up. Very easy to re- paint just clean with water and away you go.
I live in a bungalow now and it takes no time at all to whisk around the house. First class

This is the second year that I have used Sadolin Woodshield to paint weatherboard on our cottage. The finish is excellent, it is easy to apply and it is hardwearing. The parts of the exterior that I painted last year show no sign of deterioration, even on South and North facing exteriors.

Really easy to use straight out of the tin.
This is perfect for covering dark brown stained windows and doors, and turning them white inside and out!

I'D NEVER USED WATER BASED PAINT BEFORE. I DIDN'T KNOW IT EXISTED FOR EXTERIOR USE. (I SHOULD MENTION, IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR INTERIORS).
I WAS ATTRACTED BY THE "LASTS UP TO 8 YEARS" STATEMENT ON THE TIN AND THE FACT THAT 'GOOD OL' HOMEBASE' HAD A SUPER DISCOUNT OFFER THAT SAVED ME £14 0N TWO 2.5 LTR TINS! ( OF GLOSS WHITE).
I CAN'T RECOMMEND IT TOO HIGHLY. IT BECOMES TOUCH-DRY WITHIN A FEW MINUTES AND BRUSHES CLEAN EASILY IN WARMISH WATER; NO MESSY WHITE SPIRIT AND CLOGGED BRISTLES.
YOU CAN EASILY APPLY TWO COATS IN ONE DAY AND THE END RESULT IS VERY SATISFACTORY AND TIME SAVING.
THOUGH IT SCUFFS MORE EASILY THAN OIL BASED PAINT AND IS NOT SO SHINY, IT IS SO MUCH EASIER TO MAINTAIN AND RE-TOUCH DUE TO ITS QUICK DRYING QUALITIES. I WILL NEVER USE 'OIL BASED' EXTERNALLY AGAIN.
