Our decking is looking pretty tired out at the moment.
I'm thinking to paint it grey for a change.
1) Can I paint straight on to the worn down brown stain or will that have to be removed first?
2) Does anyone have recommendations on decking paint? I've found it very expensive before - one of the well known brands (can't remember which) bought at Woodies!!

Thanks in advance
