Recommendation exterior paint Fla?

ppetersjd's picture

Hi, it is time to repaint my house, and I need to choose paint.
We have used Benjamin Moore latex paints in the past on our stucco finish, and oil based paint on the wood (and some aluminum) trim.

I have heard positive and negative reports on elastomeric paints, and would appreciate input from painters and homeowners who have used it.

A problem that I have always encountered with Benjamin Moore is that they change the formulations for their base, and despite a significant investment of my time and money, I can't seem to reasonably approximate their colors (even with reasonable allowances for weathering effects) when I need to touch it up.

Please respond with comments about elastomeric paints and recommendations for superior exterior paints for Florida's climate.
