Is an oil based
or Water based paint better for outside
?
A:
It depends on what is
being painted. For the majority of surfaces,
an acrylic is going to last longer.
Acrylics are softer, more flexible,
and more resistant to chalking. This
is because the acrylics have a much
higher elasticity rate, so that when
the surface, such as timber, expands
and contracts with the weather, the
paint moves without cracking. Brighto
All Weather Paint is suitable
for exterior use but can also be used
on interior surfaces. This is because
the general Exterior acrylics, being
softer, have the tendency to stick to
themselves in hot weather, so using
this Brighto product will avoid sticking.
