If your vinyl siding starts to age or you've become tired of the color, you may wonder if you could paint right over it. In this video, a vinyl siding contractor takes you through the steps for painting your vinyl siding.
Many homeowners dislike their vinyl siding color.
Unfortunately, some don't realize that vinyl can be painted. Painting vinyl siding is the least expensive option compared to completely replacing it. A new coat of paint on vinyl may bring back faded colors, improving the home's appearance and value. When properly placed, paint coatings on vinyl hold on to moisture for extended periods.
The application of vinyl paint is simple and may be done using a sprayer, a brush, or a roller. However, be careful when choosing colors for your project. Specific colors, particularly dark ones, can absorb excess heat, leading to material warping and peeling. You can reduce the risk of warping significantly by using lighter colors. However, most paint manufacturers provide a palette of colors compatible with vinyl. Before painting your home's exterior, choose a color from this palette that is risk-free to use. Since vinyl siding develops a powdery layer on its surface, it needs to be cleaned before applying paint.
