You can’t underestimate the impact of a fresh coat of paint. Applying the right outdoor paint can dramatically boost the curb appeal of your home and restore its beauty. Whether you want to touch up your shutters with trim paint or give your entire home a makeover with house paint, Ace Hardware can help you stock up on the materials you require with a wide range of exterior paint products available in stores and online.

Exterior House Paint

House paint is for painting siding, wood and other building materials that cover the majority of your home. When you want to paint the outside of your home, exterior paint is right for the job. Exterior paints are designed to handle mildew and fading and resist damage due to weather and sunlight. This helps it outlast interior paint when used outdoors.

This outdoor paint can also be used as exterior trim paint.

Trim Paint for Outdoors

Trim paint goes on shutters and trim around roofs, windows, doors, and other architectural features. When you’re looking for exterior trim paint, the same logic applies as to house paint. You’ll need to use paint designed to handle the elements, like outdoor paint. Typically, exterior trim paints are slightly thicker to give you the added control needed to apply paint evenly to narrow or irregularly textured items.

How to Choose Your Exterior Paint

To choose the right exterior paint, consider the following:

  • Formula: Latex, oil-based and acrylic house paint options are available. Latex products are an economical choice for outdoor paint and are water-based for easy application and cleanup. Oil-based paints go on smoothly and dry to a very hard finish that resists wear and tear. Thick, viscous acrylic paint can hold up well to temperature fluctuations and is a great choice for wood, aluminum, and fiber cement.
  • Finish: The finish refers to how much shine an exterior paint has once it’s dry. Flat or matte finish house and trim paint don’t reflect light, so there’s no noticeable shine. Satin finish has a faint luster, while semi-gloss is slightly shinier. For the most lustrous appearance, opt for house paint with a glossy finish.
  • Color: For a dramatic look, choose a trim paint color that contrasts with your house paint. To get a subtler effect, choose house paint and trim paint from the same color family, making one of them a few shades darker than the other.

Additionally, what you’re painting outdoors is also important. Normal outdoor paint will work for a wide variety of projects, but specialty paints may be a better choice for others. For example, you can find long-lasting floor paints for your porch or gazebo and durable fence paints for reviving fencing along your property.
