So you’ve decided to refresh the look of your house with a new paint job? Well, here are some tips on making sure that paint lasts you much longer.
Remove damaged paint.
Scraping off your old, flaking paint is essential to helping you get a long lasting paint job.
Repair damaged surfaces.
Use proper techniques to paint
Find the right time.
Utilize the right tools.
Clean your painting surface. Dirt and debris are a painter’s greatest enemies.
What to add to paint to make it last longer?
When you buy a 1-gallon container of any color paint, just add 1 quart of POLYMATRx and mix thoroughly. Then, apply the mixed paint solution like any other paint, with a roller or brush, and let dry. The surface that you’re painting will immediately have the long lasting protection of this paint additive.
How long will paint last if stored properly?
When stored properly, an unopened can latex or oil-based paint should have a shelf life of 2 years. The best storage for paint is in a cool, dry area, away from extreme hot and cold temperatures. Paint should never be allowed to freeze and should be stored away from furnaces and other heat-generating appliances.
