This guy is totally on point. I painted my vinyl siding and I am always smiling from ear to ear when i pull in my driveway. It has been 3 years and it never gets old!! Love it!! Yes it is a reminder in fall and winter season the little hints of the old yellow. It is still a great looking home! My neighbors are shocked about the transformation of the look. The updated satellite pics has the new look. I am bragging about it because it was scary but by far the best thing i ever done. 😊

Easy to paint under and into the seams beforehand and let dry. Keep seam open to allow to dry. once dry, remove whatever small item keeping seam open (small stick) then paint rest of house. At least that is how i took care of that issue.Not hard to paint an inch or even more into seam with brush or sprayer...

@toddtribble2251 2 года назад

Bruce all vinyl siding will expand and contract with temperature change, even vertical. Vertical siding, unlike horizontal siding, usually doesn't overlap other pieces of siding where we tend to see the lines. The vertical siding is tucked behind a j channel which may or may not hide the line depending on how big the j channel is and how much contraction occurs.

@belavet Год назад

I happen to have one of these sprayer; bought it to do vinyl shutters and it worked very well. Considering doing the house. Ours is also this beige/yellow and we just hate it. Would be much cheaper than redoing all the siding. Can you go back in the winter with any sort of brush and touch up the expansion marks? Or does that end up looking worse?

@saidtheblueknight 2 года назад

Do you get any call-backs to make touchups on the exposed areas that are a different color? In the winter would be a good time to paint those newly exposed areas of siding.

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 года назад

very rarely to be honest, but it has happened before. Our painters are very careful in situations like this and we usually take care of issues like this before the end of the project, but sometimes it's hard to tell the extent of the movement during colder Michigan months. I wouldn't be too quick to touch up these spots in cold temps because of possible drying/bonding issues. Once the temps get up to around 55-60 degrees I would paint the spots needed, but take my time making sure proper drying time happens and the vinyl siding parts don't stick together.

@beabeliever9 2 месяца назад

Can we hit the differential lines with sime paint when they show up? Can we paint in the winter?.

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 месяца назад

Almost all kinds of paint will fail if applied according to their recommendations. However, there are some designed for just that. I'll also assume those types of paint will have a higher chance of looking different in sheens and maybe even final color, but those stripes on the siding are so small that I can't see them being that big of an eye sore. If I had to cover up the lines, I'd do it in the warmer weather and either pop out some of the siding (it can be a serious pain to get back in sometimes) or have some sort of support to gently pull back the edge. This would give you space to paint and, more importantly, room for the paint to dry properly before you stack the siding back on top of each other.

@damioke1713 2 года назад

Great video and very informative. My question is, is there a way to fix that expansion issue that will occur during the winter months? How could you prepare for it?

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 года назад

We have not found a fix that would work in all situations. If you could go out once the contraction has occurred with a small brush and touch up all the areas, that might work. But the temperatures would have to be right for the paint that you would be using and this won't always line up. If you have other thoughts please share them.

@rhondab1976 2 года назад

Would opening the gaps and spraying paint between the layers eliminate most of the shrinkage lines?

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 года назад

Theoretically yes. You would have to go over the whole house once to pop all of the vinyl seams out, then paint, and then after the paint has dried go back over the house and pop the vinyl back into place. I have a feeling that this process might make the painting of the vinyl cost prohibitive.

@ALT_listens_ATT 9 месяцев назад

I wouldn't suggest it because the way it is designed is to ensure durability and elastic and contract for material long gevity. I tell you it doesn't matter especially when you see the great outcome of having it done. And of course it is not for everyone.

hey great question. All paint should come with application recommendations and guidelines on how to best use the product. Oil based paint usually does better in cooler temps as acrylic usually needs temps around 50+ degrees. I believe that there is paint designed winter/artic conditions but I haven't come across such a thing yet. If you have a local paint store I bet they might know of a product line if you need to get some winter painting done.

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 года назад

Pedro we usually try to match the sheen of the original vinyl siding as close as possible so something with a little shine to it. Depending on the paint manufacturer this is usually an eggshell finish. Something with a little sheen makes it easier to clean/rinse off in the future. You could go with a higher sheen than eggshell it's all personal preference.

@TribblePaintingCompany 2 года назад

washing is very important. Especially with vinyl that can get quite the chalky residue on it if the paint has been given enough time. A power wash with a gentle bleach solution usually works for us, but if your house exterior is already looking good and doesn't have much mildew or mold spots, you could probably skip the bleach. A quick wipe down of spots is also a good indicator if the siding is clean before or even after a good power wash.

Hi Spark - as long as you're using a vinyl safe paint, you should be just fine.

The background music was very distracting and unnecessary while the host is talking.

You never tell us what kind of paint. Oil or latex paint, would you need to prime first ?

No primer? Paint will peel sooner

so if in the winter it expands, should i wait untill winter to paint? thanks

The cold weather that causes the contraction of the vinyl siding typically prohibits painting outside. By the time the weather has warmed up enough, the vinyl has expended again. Here is a link to one of our blogs that goes over the best conditions to paint in: tribblepainting.com/best-time-to-paint-house-exterior/
