House Painting Tips - Do Life Time Paints Really Last?
House painting with life time warranted paint certainly offers some benefits that go beyond the capabilities of a 25 year paint. However, are you really getting the endurance you believe you are getting. I am frequently asked by my customers if I believe they should use a life time paint, and I usually respond by telling them that it depends on what their expectations are.
The first thing you need to consider is: what are your expectations from life time paint? Are your expectations realistic?
Paint manufacturers love to sell you on the idea of life time paint. It's good business for them. It's certainly easy for you to fall for this seemingly incredible warranty, considering the cost of having your house painted these days, but are you getting what you believe you're getting.
There are 4 basic reasons you will need to repaint your home.
1. The paint you have now is faded and looks tired and dingy. 2. The caulked joints of your home have separated allowing water enter.
3. There are places where the paint is peeling.
4. You decide you are tired of the old color and want to change it.
Let's take a closer look at these four reasons in relation to life time paint.
The truth is, life time warranted paints fade with exposure to sun light and weather, so if you are expecting it to look fresh 25 years from now, then you have been misled. First, you need to read the warranty of the life time paint. Most warrantees state that they cover excessive fading. Notice this does not mean "no fading". It reads the same as a lesser grade paint. Life time warranted paints lose their clarity in color over time. Now your back to the 1st reason you needed to paint to begin with. Yes, it will maintain its fresh look longer than a lesser grade paint, but not a lot longer.
Paint really doesn't play a role in caulk separation. Caulked joints separate due to expansion and contraction of the materials that constitute your home. Life time warranted paints can't stop this movement; therefore, reason number 2 will still be in play if you paint with life time warranted paint.
For reason number 3 you have a clear advantage with some life time paints. Some life time paints are up to 70 percent ticker and have a greater ability to stretch. When it comes to peeling substrate, this is important, because a paint that is 70 percent thicker and more flexible will make it much harder for the underlying paint to peel and release. Most warranties do not cover inner layer peeling, however, most life time paints do give a limited warranty against peeling. It is possible that the inner layers of paint are so compromised that the problem extends beyond the capabilities of life time paint. This is especially true if the wood on the house wasn't primed before the top coat was applied when the house was built.
Check the specification of the paint carefully. Some life time paints are not thicker than 25 year paints, therefore can't offer the same protection as the thicker life time brands when it comes to peeling.
How many people want to live with the same color on their house for the rest of their life? I haven't met anyone yet that could say they did, and I have been in this business for over 25 years. The truth is most people like change. The fresh new look of color change is important to most folks.
The strongest reason for using life time paints really may have nothing to do with the points listed above. It may have to do more with the fact you are planning to change the color.
Life time paints can save you money.
If you are planning on changing the colors of your home you may want to consider using the life time warranted paints. They can actually save you money, even though they cost nearly double the price of 25 year paint.
Consider this: If your planning to change colors, you probably will need two coats of paint, which will cost you an extra 60 to 70 percent on average. Often you will be able to cover with one coat using a life time paint because it is a thicker paint. The difference between the cost of using one coat of life time paints and two coats of 25 year paint is going to be between 1,200 and 1,400 dollars. That's considerable savings.
Most manufacturers of life time warranted paints are counting on the average person moving every 6 to 8 years. The warranty is non transferable. If you do stay in the home long enough and make a claim on the paint, they will prorate any refund on the paint only, but not the labor.

Why when it rains it pours..have others have times in life when everything goes wrong everyday..over and over?
like right now I am inundated with continual problems and getting rejection and everyone is being critical, rejecting, and very mean..there is no support..I am feeling lack of love, concern, and respect from recently deceased mom, all my siblings, my sons, the neighbors are bring inconsiderate and starting vicious untrue rumors, and acquaintenances are not caring much at all that I am suffering.
I am a pretty nice person having been told by hundreds I am nice, sweet,. kindhearted with a heart of gold. Are these things punishments from god for some reason..or is he wanting me to only turn to Him..it is causing me to hate people as they have been very mean and selfish lately and everyone keeps yelling at me..I am feeling like life is not worth it but I keep on living,,how can I have joy and happiness in the midst of so many problems..please advise me how to handle this and rise above it and tell me are times like these common?
You're not supposed to have joy at this time...esp since your mom has died. Remember in the Bible...that verse..."There's a time to laugh...a time to cry". Try to find it and read it. I understand what you're going thru. Stuff happens !! Can't you sit down with EVERYBODY and get this straightened out? The worst thing is when people gossip...and you're not there to say if it's true or false and you can't defend yourself. You're a victim of unfeeling people. It's not true that "words can't hurt you"...Words can destroy a person. If you do decide to go to church...I hope it's not the church they go to. ("you can tell a tree by it's fruit") They sound like rotten fruit. They'll probably stop with their gossip about you when they find another victim. Had you rather be you...or them? Remember..."Just because somebody says something...doesn't mean it's true." Don't let yourself start believing the bad things they say about you. They're brainwashing you. Just get a Bible and go to your "prayer closet". Read about David (in the Bible)...he went thru some pretty bad times too with his "friends". Good Luck
