Painting a house is no small investment, so choosing the best paint colour for the exterior surfaces of your house means picking colours that look great and last. Harris brand paints from Rayneau have you covered with durable paints that resist the punishing effects of weather—and have a lifetime limited warranty to prove it.
When painting the exterior of your
house and other outdoor features, you have two important characteristics
to keep in mind: how well it lasts and how good it looks.
1.
Foolproof Colour Picks
To narrow down your colour choices, build an
exterior palette around the elements of the house that won’t change, such as
roofing materials and stone or brick components. Pick contrasting but
complementary colours to highlight architectural elements and add dimension.
Similar colour undertones will link the elements together.
2.
Take a Look Around
The best inspiration may come from stepping
outside. Select hues that are compatible with your neighborhood, architectural
style and natural surroundings. For exterior colors inspired by classic
Caribbean design and architecture, look no further than Harris Paints from
Rayneau for tried and true favorites that are perfect for any home.
3.
The Right Light
Just like interior paint colours, exterior colours
shift depending on how the light hits them—and can look different when applied
than they do on a chip. Make regret-free choices by buying a quart of paint and
applying it on inconspicuous areas of all sides of your house. Visit your
samples throughout the day until you’re comfortable with your choice.
This product from Harris offers a semi gloss finish
with 5 different technologies incorporated into its formula mold and mildew
protection, colour last, breathe easy and two in one self prime.
Colour is only one aspect of an exterior paint
choice; sheen is another important
factor. Low Lustre finish is a top
choice for the main siding colour—the low-reflective finish adds a slight
gloss, hides surface imperfections and cleans well. Semi-gloss paints add extra durability and clean up easily; making
them a good choice for areas such as windowsills that bear the brunt of weather
shifts. High gloss finishes make
colour look richer but magnify surface imperfections.
