Hamilton 12x8 Cedar Timber Designer Studio

If you let your cedar shed weather naturally it will fade to a silvery grey colour which looks great in some surroundings, and if left uncoated it will not affect the longevity of your garden shed. If you would like to keep the cedar looking fresh and new, we would recommend staining your cedar shed with Intergrain Ultra Deck in the Light Oak colour – this will make the cedar go slightly darker. There are other options including oils which look great however they are not as durable as the Ultra-Deck and will need to be applied more often.

If you are going to paint your cedar shed a colour to match your house you need to make sure that you undercoat it with an oil based primer before using any external paint to get your cedar shed to the colour you want.
