How to Protect Your Exterior Paint from the Texas Sun

June 13, 20251 min read

Introduction:

San Antonio’s sun is no joke. We’ve seen paint peel off a house faster than a sticker in summer. Here’s how we keep your paint looking fresh and lasting longer.

Why UV Rays Matter:

  • Fades vibrant colors

  • Weakens paint film over time

  • Leads to peeling, chalking, and blistering

Top Exterior Paints We Recommend:

  • Sherwin-Williams Duration®

  • Sherwin-Williams Resilience®

  • Benjamin Moore Aura®

Our Exterior Painting Prep Includes:

  • Power washing

  • Caulking gaps and cracks

  • Priming with exterior-grade sealers

  • Spray application with back-rolling

Our Exterior Painting Prep Includes:

  • Paint early morning between 50–90°F

  • Avoid painting in direct sun

  • Trim trees and check for mildew before we start
