Not anymore. Many <a href=\"https:\/\/severnapark.certapro.com\/residential-painting\/exterior-painting\/\">exterior house painters<\/a> are boasting new paint technology to protect your home. Weatherproofing, keeping cool and much more. Paint has come a long way.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond changing the color of your home, painting the exterior can provide some added benefits to the homeowner. Here are some of those benefits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weatherproof with paint<\/strong><br \/>\nBy painting the outside of your home, you can create a barrier against inclement weather like rain, ice or snow. If there is a gap in your paint where water can enter, you run the risk of dampness seeping in. It can ruin insulation, create mold, rot and a big mess. A new coat of paint will seal superficial defects and help protect your walls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work with moisture<\/strong><br \/>\nPaints including Behr\u2019s Premium Elastomeric Masonry, Stucco and Brick Paint is made to expand and contract preventing cracking throughout the seasons. The company claims it can stretch up to 600% to hide cracks. It\u2019s best used on exterior stucco, masonry, brick and concrete.<\/p>\n<p>The company also claims the paint can withstand wind-driven rains at speeds of nearly 100 mph. Because it\u2019s acrylic latex, it will resist mildew and dirt, while allowing moisture in the walls to escape.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep toes cool<\/strong><br \/>\nNew deck paints are boasting IR Reflective Technology like in SuperDeck from Sherwin-Williams stains. The pigments in the deck stain reflect heat and make temperatures on the deck easier to tolerate on hot summer days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liquid Rubber Siding<\/strong><br \/>\nThis paint is up to 10 times thicker than your average exterior paint making it the equivalent of a new siding on your home. Weatherproof with paint by adding a siding, without the siding. With 1,500 colors to choose from, it\u2019s easy to apply a layer to protect your home, while giving it a whole new look.<\/p>\n<p><strong>White Latex for vermin<\/strong><br \/>\nDiluted white interior latex paint has been used to protect fruit trees from various pests. The same effect can be reached by using it around cellars, porches and other outside areas you\u2019d like to protect from mice, rabbits and other that want to gnaw on your property.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paint is paint, right?
