If you're getting ready to paint the outside of your home, as you know, it's a lot of work
and it can be very expensive if you hire someone else to do it. Well the actual cheapest part of the entire job is the paint
But if you put the wrong paint on your house, you're going to be repainting it soon
This happens to be my favorite exterior house paint and the reason why is simple
It's got a blend of those polyurethane and acrylic resins and you can see those actual
words in a small block on the side of paint cans. So which paints don't have the best glues or resins in them
Well I'm not a really big fan of the ones that say vinyl on the label
When it's time to paint, you're going to go to the paint store and you can talk to the sales people, that's okay, but think about it
Just remember that acrylic has got a really good body to it
It's the glue that lasts. And of course if you can find a paint on the label that says acrylic and urethane or acrylic
and polyurethane, that's fantastic. That's really, really the one to buy. I'm Steve Carter, Ask the Builder
