Painting the outside of your home can be a lot of work and very expensive. The paint is actually the cheapest part of the project. But the wrong paint and you will be repainting too soon. A favorite exterior house paint contains both urethane and acrylic polymers. These help the paint glue itself to the house better. Vinyl polymers aren't one of Tim's favorites.

When it is time to paint, be sure to look for paint containing acrylic and urethane, or polyurethane. This paint has the glue that lasts. That is fantastic!
