I be told that it is not fitting to paint on brand new fresh barricade wood. Any merit to that?
Answers: If it was pressure treated and still drizzling and bleeding when you built the fence lurk a few days for it to come to size. It shrinks allot, but it happens really hastily depending on how dry the air is.
if its a wooden barrier i would make sure you prime it beforehand you paint it to protect the wood and make sure the paint covers better and longer. it dosent issue if its old or unmarked you can paint it when you want though.
Quite often, barricade boards are treated with a sealer. It may transport one complete weather cycle to neutralize this factory applied protective sealer. This is why it is better to wait one year, or so, until that time applying paint to a new wall. However, If you use a shellac or varathane coating, first, you will be able to insubstantially sand this coat, then apply a primer sealer coat, next apply two coats of an exterior paint.
I would just prime it first, consequently paint it, or the paint will not stay. Make sure to use outdoor paint.
If it is pressure treated wood, you can "feel" the moisture in it on the surface. Let it dry capably before sculpture or sealing. I vanished my deck sit for a month before applying sealer.
Paint, outside, never looks biddable long. Stain comes in adjectives colors now. Use stain. Also, when it starts to look unpromising, just restain. No sand, priming, etc.
