Benjamin advertises it’s new Aura paint as being “unlike any paint” that customers have ever tried.
They are charging $59.99 per gallon of this paint. Aura offers exception flow and leveling.
Our first painting project of the season in March of 2009was done with Aura and our customer's comment can be found on our references page.
Our second exterior project is underway in Webster Groves and we have found that even white flat covers brown paint in only one coat! The paint gives about 250 square feet per gallon.
What one needs from a legitimate painting contractor is a commitment to clean the exterior of a home using a proven product in a manner in which the home is rinsed, cleaner applied and allowed a few minutes, and then pressure washed where the water is coming no more than a 15 degree upward motion and within 3’ to 4’ of the surface before scrapping any loose paint and priming bare surfaces.
All openings around windows should be caulked to not only protect the wood, but to keep cold air out. Proper preparation is what is important in doing an exterior painting.
In April of 2009 we painted 750 Tuexdo and 752 Tuxedo in Webster Groves, 63119 just going South of Marshall two blocks ad turning right about three blocks down. You might wish to drive by and see these beautifully painted homes.
Don’t purchase hype! Use painting contracts that you have met and checked. Exterior painting is a costly project and you deserve to have it done correctly. You can trust your project to the experienced quality painters who work for Saint Louis Painting
