5 year-old latex paint.
Not directly related to woodworking, but I am hoping to paint some
stuff on the outside of the house with a couple of gallon of Benjamin Moore Exterior Latex of a particular colour which I have in inventory. However, those two gallons were mixed 5 years ago, but upon opening the cans, all seemed well, just a tad of separation on top, no lumps, smelled okay, tasted fine. My regular paint guru is on vacation, and I know there's well-honed knowledge base in this group. It will be going on treated wood and steel, the same I did 5 years ago (The building of a deck interrupted the painting ofd the back of the house.... and then I got busy with other stuff.) What I painted 5 years ago, still looks spiffy, even after a few powerwashes at 3000PSIG. So, what do you figure, gentleman, ladies, should that paint be okay? Or do I shed that genetic Dutch Fault and throw it all out and drop a hundred bucks and buy new? all thoughts appreciated, and shall Google some more... r |
