Waterbase Paints Vs. Oil Base Paints

Posted 01-15-2011 at 05:17 PM by housepaintingny (House Painting & Staining)

What is the difference between oil base house paint and waterborne house paint, commonly referred to as latex paint?


Now days you have latex paint (waterborne) with 100% acrylic binders in them providing maximum adhesion, which in most cases will out perform oil. They are very flexible, so
they continue to adhere even when temperature changes cause the surface to expand and contract. This elasticity helps forestall chipping, peeling, flaking and other common paint failure...
