I have been researching this as I need to repaint my wooden stables. They are Ascot stables and were painted a long time ago (maybe 10 years ago) with (I think) black Barn Paint which has flaked a bit but isn't horrendous. The insides are lined, but have not been painted.
I was thinking of repainting the outside (grey?) and the inside traditional black/white and looking for some opinions.
Questions:
1. which colour for the outside (black again)? or grey? Red?
2. which paint to use for the outside? Barn Paint? Osmo Country Colour? Something else?
3. which paint to use for the inside? same as 2 or just cheap emulsion on the basis that I will have to paint quite often.
I also have a wooden agricultural barn that is painted with (I think) black barn paint, and the yard is enclosed with post and rail and gates etc also painted with the same black paint as is the post and rail around the school so everything needs repainting. Kind of makes sense to paint all the post and rail/school fence with black barn paint again ... and I could get it in bulk and use it for the inside of the stables as well I suppose.
The post and rail around the fields also needs to be treated but I figure I will use creocrate on this but open to any suggestions as this is the first time I have had to paint a yard!
