Our garden fence needs some TLC. At present it's untreated verticals boards. They haven't warped but do look quite tired. We will give them a clean but have been advised that they need some painting/ protection. Options seem to be something Ronseal like, which seems to orange for us or grey or black. My fathers painted his fences grey during lockdown and it does look smart. However, ours is a less formal garden will trees and wild planting. I am also leaning toward black - just becauce I am quite over grey ! Any thoughts ? Any treatments I am missing ?

We painted ours dusky gem which is a light grey/blue. Really brightened up the garden.
I just bought that and painted our hen house and log store this weekend. It's a lovely colour!
