I need to have the trim on my house painted: eaves with three foot overhang and a 2x12 Facia Board, about 1700 sqft altogether, all previously painted and in pretty good condition. The underlying wood is rough-sawn. I am using flat paint to preserve the rustic look.
One contractor suggested 2 coats of paint sprayed on; another contractor said it would be better to spray on one coat and go over it with a roller to press the paint into tiny cracks.
What is the better way? What will last longer?
Thanks
Walter
