Painting siding is all about playing the sticky game\u2013\u2013how do you get the paint to stick to your vinyl or aluminum siding? If you have an older home with worn siding, you\u2019ll want to be sure to use a primer. If your siding is new, though, the decisions really come into play when choosing the paint. Typical paint won\u2019t stick to your siding. Instead, look for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sherwin-williams.com\/painting-contractors\/business-builders\/paint-technology-and-application\/sw-art-pro-pc-game-changers\">formulas that contain a blend of acrylic and urethane.<\/a> This is definitely one place you do not want to cheap out on, too. Ask the professionals near you for their recommendations for paint and primer for your home.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose the Best Color<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a few debates in the painting community about which colors work best for siding. The previous standard was sticking to the same shade when covering the previous color. However, we know that most homeowners are looking to change the appearance of their property, not just update it. That is why it is now accepted to also choose a paint color that is lighter than the previous shade. This way, when your paint job does chip and crack in a few years (because that is what paint does), it won\u2019t look as bad. There are now premium paints that are equipped to handle more wear and tear as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You can check out how different colors will look on your <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twin Cities East<\/span> home with <a href=\"https:\/\/certapro.com\/paint-color-ideas\/\">our paint color visualizer<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Painting Your Vinyl Siding<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here at CertaPro Painters\u00ae of Twin Cities East, we love encouraging DIY projects.
