Any experienced professional exterior painters out there?? Ima lookin for experience and opinions........
Okay, I HATEEEEEEEEEE to paint, I'd rather take a beating, I have no patience and get it all over me and my clothes and everywhere else grrrrrrrrrrrr
So, a few years back I put new wood siding (4 x 8 sheets of exterior pine (treated or exterior glue I presume, its held up great) siding on the old barn and painted it with good oil base paint and its held up not peeled etc but its time for another coat
Id RATHER use Latex base cuz its easier to clean up brushes n rollers n my body lol but how much (if any) better would it be to use oil base??
Again its NOT peeling, the new wood sucked it into the rough grain well the first time, its just time to brighten it up but Id like it to last at least 5 years??
OIL V LATEX????????
Funny story, last time I had the "first wife" in the tractor loader bucket so she could paint the top portions, Id move to a spot then back up and mover her over. I was of course THERE ALL THE TIME ON THE TRACTOR.....So the phone rings and I run in the house and was only gone like 2 mintes BUT AT THAT EXACT TIME A BUDDY LEON DRIVES PAST AND TELLS THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD I PUT THE WIFE UP THERE WHERE SHE COULDNT GET DOWN AND I DROVE OFF TO A BEER JOINT LEAVING HER STRANDED UNTIL THE HYDRAULICS FINALLY BLED OFF
My luck we do that again and he will drive past although he may only pass a few times a year grrrrrrrrrrrr

If it's due to death, your feelings could be in disarray for days, months or even years. Even now after almost 4 years, I still miss my dad. I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm.
