FAQ – Exterior Walls & Eaves Paint
It may not seem that way, but the exterior can be just as tricky as the interior. There aren’t quite as many caveats and different types of paint and finishes, but you still need the right knowledge to complete your project. We prepared a brief section to provide some of it – for any more specific questions, visit our paint store and ask our in-store experts for advice!
Can you use exterior paint for interior walls?
While it’s technically possible to use exterior paint for interior walls, it's not recommended. Exterior paints are formulated to withstand the elements, so they tend to have a stronger odour, a tougher finish, and more moisture resistance than interior paints.
What colour to paint eaves?
Light greys, beige, or even dark tones for a more contemporary or dramatic look are all viable options. Just make sure the colour complements the overall exterior scheme.
Can you use ceiling paint on eaves?
Technically – yes, but it's a bad idea. Ceiling paints are formulated to be matte and have less durability than exterior paints. Since eaves are exposed to weather conditions, they need a weather-resistant finish to stand up to the elements.
Should you paint eaves with a roller or brush?
It's generally best to use a brush. A brush gives you more control, especially around edges and corners, ensuring you can reach all the nooks and crannies of the eaves. While a paint roller can be faster for larger, flat areas, it might not work as well for the intricate details of eaves. For a neat and professional finish, a brush is your go-to tool, though you can use a roller for larger, smooth sections like the underside of the eaves.
Should I paint eaves white?
It’s a popular choice – some would even say a classic one. While it does look crisp and clean, that’s not going to be the case for a very long time, leaving you with a weathered look. They get dirty, it’s as simple as that.
