Hello @HennieCo
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your upcycled storage unit project.
What a transformation, that bright colour you've chosen has really given it a new personality and looks so much different from the varnish finish. That was good choice using the Zinsser 3.78L Bulls Eye Primer Undercoat Sealer And Stain Blocker as it really hid the old varnish finish.
Again, thank you for sharing such a great project.
