Warwick Buildings
If you have been recommended by Warwick Buildings, it is likely that you are wondering which product is the most suitable, and how much you will need.
The most popular product by far is the Clear Tough Coat, as it is the mid range clear treatment, which doesn't change the colour of the building. Single garages and small garden rooms in shiplap or feather edge cladding, can usually suffice with 5 litres. Garden offices over 20 square metres and double garages will usually need 10 litres.
If you prefer a top of the range product to compliment your building, then the Royal Exterior clear is the one for you. This has overtaken the Clear Tough Coat this year - and it provides the same coverage.
Customers with cedar cladding usually select the Restol range, as the additional UV protection keeps the natural look of the random colours from fading, longer than the Clear Tough coat or Royal exterior for longer. Eventually the colours will fade, hence the Natural Brown Restol is the next popular to bring back the beauty of the hardwood timber.
Customers that want to change the colour or bring back the original golden oak look that the buildngs quickly turn to, often choose the autumn gold shed and fence to add colour, before applying the clear tough coat back over the top.
If it's a paint that you want, then the popular choices are the Anthracite Grey Royal Exterior | Black Royal Exterior and Royal Exterior Slate Grey
Finally - if you want to simply splash and dash, getting the job done efficiently, then the Wood Protector range offers a selection of attractive colours that will make your garden room, garage, fence or shed look fabulous for an affordable price and the flick of a brush.

Matching to Cedar
Painting / Staining Tanalised Timber
If your building has a mixture of Cedar cladding and Shiplap cladding, you may well look to stain the tanalised cladding to closely match cedar. This is quite difficult as the beauty of Cedar is in the mixture of light and dark boards randomly selected, and fitted.

Popular Colours
A common question is what colour treatment do I need to take the Warwick Building back to it's original look.
In most cases the answer is Gold Shed & Fence, or Gold Woodstain and Protect. This is usually because people love the golden brown colour that buildings quickly fade to, after about three months. It is the colour that the tanalised cladding turns to when the sun burns off the green tanalised colour.





Future
Colours
This building is nearly 15 years old and the feather edge cladding has been left to weather naturally. It has recently had the benefit of the doors and trims being painted with Anthracite Grey.
