There are many statues and garden ornaments available these days. They are often white concrete which look great in a formal Roman or Greek old style garden but unfortunately don’t suit most gardens. In a conventional garden a more neutral colour such as terracotta will blend with almost anything. There is a new paint now available that can transform concrete pots or old statues into terracotta masterpieces for the garden. The product is Megatreat Liquid Terracotta. It is water soluble and easy to use. Simply paint it over an old pot or concrete ornament with a paint brush to give it a new life. The paint’s colour is almost more terracotta in colour than terracotta itself. So transform any old pots or ornaments to fit into your garden with this new product.
