Frequently asked questions about how it works.
Why don’t you paint wood?
Wood is an organic, living material. Like all living things, organic surfaces must breathe a lot and by applying a coating over it, this breathing room will be reduced. The natural tendency for the wood to breathe and move would eventually cause the paint to chip and peel. Not to mention, there’s actually no added benefit of spraying wood since its porous nature doesn’t allow for a smooth factory finish and what we’re going for.
Finally, when we give you a quote for your project during your consultation, we give you an exact fixed price that won’t change so you can determine whether a Spray-Net revamp makes sense in terms of your budget. It is difficult to estimate how long it will take to strip wood, so we wouldn’t be able to give you a fixed and exact quote ahead of time which doesn’t coincide with our promise to you.
What types of Exterior surfaces do you paint?
We paint:
- Aluminum, fiber cement, vinyl, and engineered wood sidings
- Brick
- Stucco and aggregate
- Front and garage doors
- Windows
- Soffits, fascias, and gutters
These surfaces will be coated with paints customized according to the material and weather. The paints allow for durability, washability, UV resistance, high-traffic scratch resistance, and flexibility.
Do you offer a wide variety of colors?
We have a wide variety of colors for you to choose from, each specifically formulated for exterior use and formulated with optimal fade resistance in mind. We use a combination of the most popular standard siding and door and window colors to provide maximum durability against premature fading and discoloration, as well as to apply the finishing touch of matching-colored caulking.
Although we can match any exterior paint color you have in mind, we can’t always provide the same optimal fade resistance or a matching caulking color. Finally, we work with an experienced designer every year to help us come up with the latest color trends and ultra-stylish exterior color palettes… an added perk that our customers really appreciate!
Why can’t you paint a surface that has already been repainted?
We offer homeowners a permanent factory finish that serves as an alternative to replacement. If we can’t fulfill this promise to you, then we simply don’t take on the project. Delivering on the Spray-Net promise is very important to us. In the case of brick, if pores are already saturated with a coating, it’s virtually impossible for the brick to absorb our stain. Like stripping wood, the time needed to strip paint off aluminum and vinyl siding is indeterminate. It can actually take DAYS to completely remove several coats of paint. If a project takes days, then it’s not likely to be cost-effective.
“Just paint over it” you say? Well, if we paint over an existing coat of paint, the aggressive nature of our coatings to maximize adhesion might actually pull away at the less-resistant latex paint. If the original paint film comes off, then the outermost coat of paint (ours) would also come off with it.
How many coats of paint do you apply?
Unlike the traditional brush and roller method, spray-applied painting is measured according to paint thickness rather than the number of coats. Depending on the specific exterior coating that we’re using, paint thickness can vary between 4 and 20 mils. A thicker paint film doesn’t automatically mean it will be more durable; it all depends on what we’re trying to achieve for a final product’s properties.
You can be sure that our expert painting crews are equipped with the knowledge, products, and experience to produce a permanent factory finish… every time.
What’s the finish of your exterior paint?
For aluminum and vinyl exterior siding, we strike the perfect balance between a matte and glossy finish to minimize the appearance of surface imperfections and to create a like-new washable finish. These types of custom finishes are not available with conventional paints limited to matte, satin, or semi-gloss. For doors and windows, we follow the same gloss standards as the door and window industry so that they look like they’ve just arrived from the factory!
What kind of products do you use?
We are an eco-friendly painting company that uses our own exclusive line of low VOC, water-based, and industrial-strength exterior paints and coatings. All of our products fall under all government VOC limits. Each of our exterior and kitchen paints and coatings are uniquely tailored for each surface and for a specific method of application, and they all contain a unique blend of additives and superior inorganic pigments that allow us to achieve the desired results per surface that we’re revamping!
Since factory paint is “baked,” is your paint as scratch resistant?
When painting doors and windows for manufacturers, IR lamps are used to artificially accelerate the curing process. This specific technique is necessary since the demands of the commercial market require quick packaging and delivery of products. To bring the same one-day permanent factory results to the residential sector, we’ve formulated our exclusive paints and coatings so that they become dry to the touch within 15-30 minutes of application, depending on the weather. In a short time, the paint film achieves a factory OEM level of hardness. With the help of the sun’s natural UV rays, the paint fully cures and achieves maximum hardness and durability in the days that follow. The sun’s natural UV rays are just as effective as a forced factory cure. When needed in unideal weather conditions, however, we can produce a forced bake for front doors in our mobile spray booth, since this high-traffic surface requires a quicker full cure. Our industrial grade formulations coupled with an optimal application process is what allows our coatings to be as scratch and mar resistant as factory coatings.
What’s the Difference Between a Virtual Estimate and an At-Home Consultation?
Virtual Estimate
An estimate is a rough calculation of the cost of your project. While an at-home consultation will allow us to provide you with an exact price, we understand that sometimes a quick estimate is preferred when you’re at the beginning of planning a home renovation project. Our teams provide virtual estimates through video calls in order to meet these needs. Prior to the virtual meeting, we’ll ask you to provide some key information along with photographs of the surfaces you’d like to have painted. We will then reach out to you virtually to discuss the project, provide you with the estimate, answer any of your questions, and discuss whether you want to proceed to an at-home consultation.
At-Home Consultation
An at-home consultation allows us to view your home and discuss the revamp that you have in mind. The duration of the consultation is typically up to an hour, and it’s important that you are present so that we can properly assess the project with you and answer any questions you may have. If you are planning to have the exterior of your home beautified, we’ll walk around your home together to assess the complexity of the work that needs to be done. If you are planning a kitchen revamp, we’ll enter your home to take a look at your kitchen and gain a better understanding of the scope of the job. Whether you are planning an exterior or kitchen revamp, we’ll discuss colors, show our sample boards, explain our painting process, provide you with an exact price, explain payment options, and provide you with an expected timeframe for carrying out your Spray-Net transformation.
