Although it seems like our long and cloudy winters never end!\u00a0 Our sunny days do blast your home with UV rays breaking down the resin in the paint. Resin is the primary component in paint that protects the home. Pigment gives it the color. When the house starts to fade, this is an indication that the resin has broken down in the paint and there is minimal protection on your home. Without protection on the house, moisture will get into those boards (usually siding boards) and lead to warped siding boards which can be very expensive to replace. We recommend a power wash to wash off any dust and residue from the chalking. For sides that experience the most sunlight, we also recommend a second coat or a coat of primer for extra protection. This will provide a higher level of resin and protection for that side of the home, ensuring that it will not fade as quickly so you can avoid costly replacement costs in the future and a longer lasting paint job.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-one-half fusion-column-first\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-top:20px;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;width:48%; margin-right: 4%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-slider-sc fusion-flexslider-loading flexslider flexslider-hover-type-liftup\" data-slideshow_autoplay=\"1\" data-slideshow_smooth_height=\"1\" data-slideshow_speed=\"7000\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:100%;\"><ul class=\"slides\"><li class=\"image\"><span class=\"fusion-image-hover-element hover-type-liftup\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Fading-Paint.png\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":824,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/823"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=823"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/823\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1090,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/823\/revisions\/1090"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/824"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=823"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=823"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integritypaintingpros.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=823"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
