exterior paint
Hi all
I''m about to paint the outside of my house ~ It's part rendered & part spar dashed. Obviously the rendered part will be painted in smooth paint but which type of paint should I use on the spar dashed areas ~ smooth or textured? I originally would have gone for the textured but then thought that it would be harder to get full coverage given that its on a very rough area so I'm confused now! Will be using the Wickes master range unless you guys have better recommendations Cheers mike |

Double the price but well worth it. Magnolia is often on special offer. |
