touch-up paint for exterior siding

connie363 | Posted in General Discussion on

Our 15 year old house has vinyl composite siding and supposedly is never to need new paint. However, one of our temporarily industrious sons pressure washed not only our wood deck but tried it on the house siding as well and removed some of the paint color. Is there a special type of paint needed for this kind of siding?
