Complementing Beauty with TOUGHNESS

The best time to paint is when the weather is warm and dry, with little wind. Obviously, these kinds of days are few and far between during the fall. As we approach the cold weather months, the hours of the day that are ideal for painting will shorten.
The amco paints are best against weather cover, painting season starts after the last frost in spring, and then runs until about two weeks before the first expected frost in the fall. Using latex too late in the fall or during "summer" can cause great stress on the latex paint film. Cool temperatures during application can interfere with curing and cause coalescence problems. Poor coalescence will result in very early paint failure. Also, subjecting a latex paint film to freeze-thaw cycles during the first two weeks of cure may shorten the long-term life of the paint system.
