Exterior paints are divided into the following types:

1. Means having a transparent structure - varnish, blue, impregnating agents. The fact that they contain different pigments allows us to emphasize the natural structure of wood. These means good water vapor permeability, which is why the liquid from the processed material easily evaporates. Typically, such coatings are substances protecting against ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the tree is not destroyed in the sun, and the term of use increases. Secondary treatment is carried out in a couple of years, with the initial layer does not require removal.

2. Acrylic paint dispersion. Such coatings are widely used in the repair work. Acrylates and their derivatives serve as a link, and the solvent is water. The surface treated such type coatings reliably protected from an external impact, it does not burn, moisture resistance, liquid evaporates easily, that allows the tree to "breathe."

acrylic	For a basis of acrylic resins are taken when drying darkens. Their advantages are: odorless, dries quickly, resistant to abrasive media, moisture, UV light. Ideal for matt and semi-matt surface. Suitable for all types of work
water based paints	The structure consists of aqueous emulsion polymers. Eco-friendly, wider color gamut, vapor-permeable, suitable for many surfaces. Do not differ resistance eventually appear pollution. BEST MODE - vodoemulsionku based on acrylic resins. If you add the latex gets moisture. Surfaces treated with this paint can be washed frequently
Silicone	The basis consists of special silicone resins. They are considered the best, so their price is quite high. Vapor-permeable, it does not get wet. Due to the fact that carbon dioxide is passed, easily solidified, flexible

The advantages of acrylic paint

Acrylic paints are in high demand, and for good reason - they have a lot of advantages.

Of the disadvantages can be identified that cracks can occur at low temperatures. In this case, furniture, located in the room, which in the cold season aired repeatedly, it is better not to paint.

The silicone latex

This kind of coating is carried out on the basis of acrylic copolymer and silicone, with which this color when compared with latex and acrylic, has the following properties:

• a long time is not erased, moisture resistance;
• permeable to water vapor;
• It has elasticity;
• resistant to the appearance of mold and mildew;
• over time, does not yellow;
• not prone to cracking and swelling;
• resistant to dirt.

Silicone vodoemulsionku - most resistant coating, pungent odor absent. In most cases, a dye used to stain the front of the buildings, but also the color and objects furniture, to increase their lifespan, especially if they are located in rooms with high humidity. A significant drawback of such paint - a significant price equivalent, because of its high quality and durability, then these costs will justify itself.
