Thinking of using this to repaint our wooden fascias prior to new guttering. Any good.... worth the cost?
(I'm going with Anthracite over existing white if it makes a difference)

Yes, it's good stuff. Good opacity, dries fast, clean in water. I keep a tin on the van as a matter of course as it's good for getting a couple of coats on in one day when making good after joinery installations etc.

Definitely works. I went the other way, satin white over a dark brown banister and stair rail. Two coats of primer and three coats of paint gave a really nice result. You may need less than you think as a small tin seemed to go a long way for me. Dries really quickly as well.

Yes, used black here straight onto new plywood, was sceptical when I read the tin but 2 coats have seen it well covered.

Zinssers good stuff, I keep both the water and spirit based primers in the van (find the spirit based stuff better but it kills the brushes)
