Follow on Google News | Kansas City House Painter Says Painting Can Add ValueA freshly painted house is aesthetically pleasing and creates an inviting first impression. However, getting the painting process started goes beyond selecting a suitable color that will provide years of enjoyment.
By: Jim Mack Durability: Paint should withstand harsh weather conditions without fading. Selecting a 100 percent acrylic latex formula that resists peeling, cracking and fading in all weather conditions is ideal. Mildew and Algae Resistant Coating: It's important to select a paint that protects against both mildew and algae. Folks tend to assume that these are the same organisms, when they are not. Algae can grow on an inert surface because it only needs water and sunlight to grow (it can even grow on glass), while mildew needs organic food such as sugar from wood or oil from paint to develop. Read labels carefully. Many paints offer only mildew protection. Kansas City Painting: Selecting Paint For Your Home Ease of Application: High-hiding Pure White Finish: Select a paint that provides exceptional hiding. Hiding refers to the paint's ability to obscure the surface over which it has been applied, and it is achieved by the paint's pigment, binder properties and thickness. Many paints use gray toning to achieve hide, which can create a dull and gray finish. Choosing paint with a pure white base ensures that you can achieve advanced hide without visible gray tinting. A brilliant white finish achieved via hide is especially important when painting your house white or a light color such as yellow. Color: Choosing a color should reflect your style and make the most of your home's features. Begin the selection process by thinking about what type of house you own. Certain architectural styles demand different color palettes, tones and schemes. Think about the color of homes that neighbor yours. Also consider the natural elements that surround your house and how they look year-round. Nearby foliage might help you choose accent or trim colors. That is a great House Selling Tips Painting only won't do it.
