  • Satin.
  • Soft gloss finishes.

Element Guard® Exterior Paint

Exterior paint must withstand harsher conditions than interior formulas, and Element Guard® Exterior Paint is perfect for the job. It offers high moisture resistance and can withstand extreme weather. Element Guard® Exterior Paint has superior adhesion and resists cracking and peeling. If the weather turns unexpectedly, you can apply it an hour before it rains.

    Regal® Select Exterior High Build Paint

    Regal® Select Exterior High Build Paint is a thick, buildable formula that bridges small cracks and voids in fewer coats.

    Benjamin Moore Paint Technology

    Benjamin Moore utilizes advanced technology to ensure long-lasting, high-performance paints. Color Lock® technology, exclusive to Aura® Exterior Paint, locks color pigments into the paint to prevent fading and provide an ultra-smooth finish.

    Other paint brands add extra chemicals to their colorants so they easily mix into every paint formula. These chemicals weaken the paint’s structure, causing fading and rub-off. To solve this problem, Benjamin Moore designed colorants specifically for their paint, eliminating the need for additional chemicals that affect the paint’s integrity.

    Exterior House Paint FAQs

    Here are a few frequently asked questions we get about exterior house paint:

    Q: When is the best time to paint my house?

    A: The ideal conditions for exterior painting are a temperature between 40-80°F, low humidity levels, and minimal wind. Spring and early fall offer the most days with perfect painting conditions. Before you start outdoor painting, make sure to check the weather forecast beforehand to ensure there's no rain or snow expected within the next 24 hours.

    Q: How do I maintain my exterior paint?

    A: Regularly cleaning your home’s exterior helps remove dirt and mildew that will damage the paint’s surface over time. Look for areas needing a touch-up and fix them quickly so they don’t become more prominent or problematic.

    Q: How much paint will I need?

    A: A gallon of paint covers approximately 300 square feet, and exterior jobs need two coats, so a 1,500-square-foot home will take about 10 gallons. Textured surfaces, like stucco or masonry, require more paint for full coverage.

    Q: What type of paint sheen should I use?

    A paint’s sheen affects its final appearance and longevity. Each finish has benefits and drawbacks and is most suitable for specific applications.

    • Flat paint: The best choice for concealing imperfections like cracks or chips, particularly on wood siding. However, it’s the least durable finish and shows dirt prominently, so consider using this type of paint on low-traffic areas like exterior walls.
    • Low lustre: A popular finish for many homeowners because it’s the perfect medium between flat and glossy. Its low reflectivity covers flaws, but the slight gloss adds durability and hides dirt.
    • Soft gloss: The most durable finish and the easiest to care for because it gives color richness and depth but makes blemishes very conspicuous, making careful application essential. Soft gloss paint is best reserved for doors, shutters, and trim.
