exterior painting

Not all paints are ideal for all substrates. Painting Exterior brick and stucco is becoming a more common practice, but it’s important that you choose the right paint so you can keep your exterior looking beautiful with a natural and long lasting finish.

In the past, we cautioned against painting exterior brick because water and moisture could lead to damage and maintenance problems. However, if you opt for a breathable, mineral paint that doesn't seal the brick and lets the moisture escape, these issues can be avoided.

Mineral paint offers several advantages that make it a preferred choice for many. One of its standout features is its superior finish. Unlike traditional paints that rely on synthetic binders, mineral paint utilizes natural ingredients like lime, clay, and minerals. These components allow mineral paint to create a breathable surface that ages beautifully.

Moreover, mineral paint is highly durable and resistant to weathering, making it suitable for both interior and exterior applications. Its mineral composition also makes it environmentally friendly, as it emits fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to conventional paints, contributing to better indoor air quality.

Additionally, mineral paint often exhibits excellent coverage and color retention, resulting in a long-lasting and vibrant finish. Its ability to adhere well to various surfaces, including plaster, masonry, and wood, further enhances its versatility and appeal.

Overall, mineral paint not only provides an ideal solution for painting projects but also delivers a superior finish that combines aesthetic appeal with durability and environmental sustainability.
