I'm thinking of painting my garden fence a grey colour. What is the best way to apply it, brush or spray?

Spray definitely quicker, but we still used brush around edges. We put cardboard down to protect floor. And what ever you do don’t do it on a windy day  we did some yesterday and both ended up with green freckles  x
