I'm moving into a new property soon and wanted to paint the fences. Originally I was thinking of grey but struggling to get any. What do you think of painting them in black? Do you think it would make it seem smaller?

Black looks great with plants against it and doesn't make garden look small. Use Cuprinol ducksback it's best
