As a professional decorator I would never recommend using any kind of paint on Tannalised decking

Decking paint, no matter how expensive, looks awful after after a year or so. Decking protector or oil is a better option.

Really after some advice, I've extended our decking and the old one is faded and a different colour, I've given it a pressure wash which helped but far from the same colour.
