From: wanderer )
Each to their own, I guess. I used Weathershield some years ago on my last place. Stripped back to bare wood, primed, two u/c, and two gloss coats - the 'gloss' wasn't, it was more of a sheen, and the whole lot lasted three years and started flaking off and had to be replaced with an oil-based paint that at least lasted for four years before it needed a repaint. Personally I wouldn't touch the stuff, but in the end you pays your money and takes your choice. What would you use? Pliolite? I dont care whether the finish is gloss or satin, but I do need maximum life and dont mind paying for it. I once proposed using car spray paint, but was told it wouldnt survive the movement of the wood. Its for exterior wood windows. Regards, NT |
