What paint for external wall?

Haven't you just got a plasma cutter,why not do yourself some decorative panels,got to be far better than boring plain painted walls,no?

Cover it with fencing panels...will be a lot softer to the eyes and more in keeping with the garden

We both like the walls. It was a 2.5x width, 10ft high garage when we moved in but the wife insisted that the rear garden should comprise grass rather than garage

I am just looking closer here. You are booting the ball off the wall and taking the paint off? Caught!!

My nephew broke his sister's, brother's and fiance's(*) wrist in the back garden with a football. I'm not that bad, yet!

(* she married him and they now have two kids so I guess she forgave him!)

p.s. still cannae get the hang of that stick welder - I much prefer MIG

You will get use from it somewhere though.
Big bendy electrode into a tight spot somewhere or a stainless rod for some heavy item sculpture or the like. I couldn't be without the arc as well as the Mig.
Remember to strike first on the scrap to heat rod.

I have a bit similar situation an I knew when I built it I should likely get issues. but I rendered it and its full on stones and rock for a good 1/2 mtr behind with a field drain. I get a few issues but not so bad I need look at it yearly. I should certainly do something other than paint it every year as its an expensive process buying a tub of paint annually, the brush that's hardened off etc.

I like that core10 panelling with the tree relief though it will cost a few bob in stuff
