Exterior painting

Posted by Sue Brennan, on
The outside of our bungalow is rendered and we have had new windows put in. Round the outside where the frame meets the walls the paint has come off and thereis bare concrete what kind of undercoat do I need for this please, don't want the paint flaking off after a couple of months. Thank you

Hi sue you can use masonry paint you can get it in lots of colours and it comes in water based or oil based to paint round your windows a 2.5lt tin should be fine or if it has been glossed get the undercoat mixed to match
