For those fences and exposed wood that see some very rough weather, OEM vinyl coating is a good idea to waterproof the material. For larger jobs, like whole houses for example, contract vinyl coating is used and this can be done either by the owner himself or by professional companies who have the high-powered sprays to put on several coats in quick succession.Fencing is just one of the places where this process is being used these days but perhaps the most popular way to use it is on complete houses which need to be protected from the weather. Although it sounds like quite a big job, it can be painted on too if the householder so wishes. We have all seen those pastel colored clapboard houses in famous cities, and it is this treatment which makes them look so neat. Indeed, this is a good selling point too since, once painted, the whole thing can last up to thirty years or so.The larger jobs are certainly mostly done with a sprayer since this is much faster and cleaner than just slapping it on with a brush. However, as with all fine droplets of liquid, the right protective clothing has to be worn at all times if problems are to be avoided. It is virtually maintenance free though after this treatment so it is a good deal when the time scale is taken into account.The paint itself is not the common or garden variety that we use around the home. Rather, it is the plastic in the paint that makes it so expensive but considering how long the job will last, it must be worth it in the long run. Indeed, it also stays color true for the lifetime of the paint which means no more touch ups after a hard winter.Since it is mostly the weather that destroys materials that are left outside, this paint gives a weather proof coating beyond expectations. The wood or materials underneath it stay in good order for much longer so it also means that the materials will not have to be replaced regularly. Resale values will be higher too since no work will be done in the foreseeable future.For sure, we all like to keep our homes and surroundings in good order and with this kind of treatment, life becomes that much easier. A quick hose down every now and then is all that is needed to keep things looking fresh and this must be good for those people who do not like to work too hard!Finally, the paint and the contractors who carry out this kind of work are usually available online. Try looking up different websites and see what they have to offer. With luck, some savings can be made if the color is about to go out of stock or new colors are coming in. Treating more than one house too may attract some discounts so neighbors who want to have a unified look may be able to work a deal if the club together on this.
