This choice is mostly
a matter of personal preference, but it may help to make
your choice based on the advantages each type of paint offers.
Quality exterior water-based paints provide better retention
of gloss and colour than solvent-based paints, especially
in sunny conditions. They also resist chalking and long-term
cracking and peeling better than solvent-based products.
Solvent-based paints offer superior
one-coat hiding and better adhesion to difficult chalky
surfaces. If you must paint in conditions below 5°C,
solvent-based paints offer better durability.
