Hi, I’ve been cleaning and prepping my exterior stucco (’60’s built house) and am almost ready to re-paint. Anyone have any yeas or nays about any of the following paint brands?
Vista, Sherwin-Williams, Dunn-Edwards, Frazee
I’d appreciate any input. Thanks

I've always used Benjamin Moore and been quite satisfied with it. SW usually gets high marks.
Whatever, it's best to work with an independent paint store, where they know their stuff and provide real personal service, vs HW store or Big Box.
Just in the process of painting the 300-year-old house with SW Duration - excellent paint! It is pricy per gallon, but since most of the cost of a paint job is the labor, you save on coverage. I did dark red over white, one coat...
Going to pick up some Porter exterior after lunch, it's my $23 go-to if client doesn't go for $50+ duration (which is awfully nice to apply, since it's self-leveling).

If you have a Lowes close by you may want to look at the Valspar Duramax. We just finished using it on our house trim and siding areas. It did a very good job with a very nice finish. $34/gal I think. I heard it is similar to SW Duration, can't say myself as I have not used the Duration product.
Thanks for the suggestions, folks, I appreciate it.
