Painting Fence and Shed a new colour. how many coats?

allycavs

Hi 
Ive painted fences with fencelife by brush for the last  few years. I got a sprayer from aldi and tried using last years fence life which instead of spraying came out as a stream of paint onto the fence/shed. Thats when I realized I need the proper sprayable fence life?
Also I would like to change the colour from brown too a nice bright pastal colours. Would I be  looking at 3/4 coats to do that? If i go back to brush I may use a sponge?
Thanks
Alan

The number of coats depends on the product you purchase.

This fence life is one coat and sprayable but it doesn't come in pastel colours.

i have applied fence life plus both by brush and spray to wood that has not been painted before. in my opinion, 2 coats are needed to get a decent finish

seems to be a wider choice of colours than last fence life mentioned

Get 10 litre bucket of weathershield in your chosen colour, throw in 1 or 2 litres of bonding, put it on with a three or four inch brush.
