We call it exterior paint but in truth it really isn’t paint at all. NPA Coatings applies liquid vinyl coating as an outstanding and long-lasting alternative to paint.
At one time, paint was the only material available to cover the exterior trim and other exposed parts of a home. However, today’s paints, in order to meet stricter environmental standards, no loner have the chemistry that once allowed them to be sufficiently durable for outside exposure. As a result, exterior paint starts failing the very day that it is applied.
That’s why Jason Vander Vorste chose NPA Coatings to “paint” the exterior portions of the Al Carrell How-to House. The product that NPA Coatings uses for the application is AM-VI-CO® Liquid Vinyl Siding. AM-VI-CO® Liquid Vinyl Siding was developed over 35 years ago. It is a vinyl resin that can be applied over wood, stucco, metal, brick or block.
When applied, AM-VI-CO® Liquid Vinyl Siding takes on the natural appearance of the surface to which it is applied, giving it a permanent, freshly painted look. And because it is vinyl, it offers the same long-lasting durability and low maintenance of traditional vinyl siding, but without the seams of vinyl siding. It is available in 1,800 colors, providing unlimited choices for the character of your home. It can even be done in accent colors.
NPA Coatings applies the liquid vinyl in a three-step process. First, the house is power-washed, cleaned and inspected for damage and for areas in need of caulking. Second, a border coat is applied that ensures a fully prepared surface prior to vinyl application. Third, the liquid vinyl is installed. It cures to a beautiful, smooth finish that is easy to clean, is durable and does not alter the architectural appearance of your home. For that reason, the product is approved in ARB communities and historic areas.
In addition, unlike other acrylic based coatings and paints, AM-VI-CO® Liquid Vinyl Siding is a breathable finish, guaranteed to never blister, crack, peel or flake. A 30-year warranty is issued directly by the manufacturer and can be transferred to a second homeowner. Liquid vinyl pays for itself many times over, and will undoubtedly increase the value of your home. Chad Young, the owner of NPA Coatings has seen to it that the owners of the Al Carrell How-to House will “Never Paint Again.”
