1 . Choose the right paint . Use a 100 % acrylic paint . It offers superior adhesion , is easy to apply and provides long-lasting results .
2 . Clean the siding . Before painting it , make sure the surface is extremely clean . This will improve adhesion and help provide an even finish . Use a damp cloth or a hose to remove any dirt and debris . To avoid damaging the siding , make sure you don ’ t use steel wool , a wire brush or anything abrasive .
3 . Prepare the area . Remove shutters and exterior decorations , cut back bushes and trees that might get in the way and cover up anything you don ’ t want to get paint on ( doors , windows , trim , hardware , etc .).
