House Paint Video
Everyone has to paint either the inside or outside of their house at some time. What is the best paint to buy? Here are some tips.
Look on the can for the words acrylic polymer and vinyl polymer. The best paint is 100% acrylic. Acrylic resins are very stretchable and resist the expansion and contraction of wood. This helps them last a long time.
The vinyl paints are ideal for items that get repainted very few years. It does not last quite as long.
There are some new paint that go on almost twice as thick as normal paint. They come with a lifetime warranty against peeling and blistering. That will be the next paint used on Tim's home.
