Painting Vinyl siding?
I just bought a garage package and had it erected by contractors. They did
a great job. The problem is that I screwed up when ordering the white vinyl siding to match the house. I forgot to tell the sales guy that around the doors and windows should be brown plastic. Can anyone recomend paint for such a screw up? Thanks.....Jimi |

You're going to have to take it off to match it with other stuff if you don't paint it. |

I painted some trim with Pittsburgh brand and it has held up for many years now. I repainted it to change color about three years ago. Still good. |

Painting Vinyl siding?
"Fusion" is wet dog **** compared to Duplicolor "VinylColor" for anything
plastic. There may be more than one mfgr of this kind of stuff, if necc.; this is not paint, its sold for dying vehicle interiors, and it works well for plastics, like computer components (the one I use), and probably does flexible electrical cords with no problem. You can't make a mistake, there is no running, and the color is even. There is no excuse not to paint anything plastic, even black. If you're gonna, don't waste your time doing anything else. well maybe they changed the name to "Vinyl & Fabric": http://www.duplicolor.com/products/vinyl.html I'm gonna send an e-mail about the name. I get it in Canada at NAPA. Check the web, not all products at all chains. "bdeditch" wrote in message oups.com... Is there any type of spray for the rubber coatings on extension cords? so I thought I'd save save some time "Jim" myplace@home wrote in message ...
