Hi! We recently hired a company to paint our house. It was built in
the early 1990s and is brick and wood. My neighbor told me that it
is currently a solid color stain and I shouldn't have them paint over
it because it will just peel! I never asked the company if the house
is stained or painted. How can I tell solid color stain from paint?
Is it okay to paint over solid color stain? The company is going to
powerwash, caulk, spray zinc oxide on the some nail heads, two coats
of Sherwin Williams and a hardener. Any advice? Thanks!
