Does Liquid Vinyl Siding help insulate?
Yes. Liquid Vinyl Siding is effective at sealing the structure and  reducing conduction and convection heat loss in winter as well as heat gain in summer. R-Value  in a coating product is difficult to measure. Beware of companies making insulation claims with spray on coatings. They are unverifiable and the FTC is disciplining companies making such  fictitious insulation claims. A coating, even with a ceramic additive, cannot provide insulation equal to that inside the walls and will not significantly reduce your energy bills. The true value of Liquid Vinyl Siding is in the elimination of future maintenance & painting costs, continuing beautiful appearance and what it can add to the property's resale value.

How thick is Liquid Vinyl Siding?
Generally speaking, Liquid Vinyl Siding is about ten to fifteen times thicker than an average coat of paint. Standard paints consist of about 70% to 85% liquids which evaporates out of the paint as it dries, leaving only 25% to 30% of actual solid paint on the surface.  Liquid Vinyl has a much higher percentage of solids, leaving about 70% solid particles on the surface. A coat of dry paint is only about one mil (1/1,000 inch) thick, that's as thin as a Glad sandwich bag and by comparison, 4X  thinner than a sheet of printer paper (4 mils). Liquid Vinyl dries to about 14 mils and combined with the bonder, a total thickness of about 18 mils of coating is left on the surface. Regular paint and stains do not provide enough needed protection and will not hold up very long exposed to the elements.

How do I clean Liquid Vinyl Siding?
When necessary, simply hose it down with a garden hose. If you prefer, it can be pressure washed as well. Ordinary household cleansers such as Spic & Span or a solution of bleach and water can be used without harming the coating. We provide you with  touch-up material in case you have a really serious stain such as graffiti.

Can more than one color be applied?
Yes, we can coat a home with multiple colors or any combination of colors.

Do I have to coat the entire structure or can I coat selected parts?
Although we recommend coating the entire structure for long-term protection, we can coat only those parts you want covered.

But I have a brick house?
Even brick homes still have a lot of wood that needs to be protected such as the eves, wood trim around windows and doors, railing, columns and porch ceilings. Applying Liquid Vinyl will protect these areas as well and can make the entire exterior maintenance-free.

Can the color be changed if  I sell it or want a different color?
Yes! AM-VI-CO®  Liquid Vinyl is engineered to last a lifetime, however, if you want to change the color, we can apply a thin coat of fresh vinyl to change the color. The cost is usually less expensive than regular painting since little surface preparation is needed and the original coating application is still be protecting the home.

What preparation needs to be done before applying Liquid Vinyl?
Surface preparation is absolutely crucial. We take care of all the preparation before installing the Liquid Vinyl system. Each project involves different preparation steps depending on the type, age and condition of the surfaces. Molds and mildew are completely removed and surfaces are cleaned. Rotted or faulty wood is replaced and surfaces are routinely scraped, sanded and caulked. Rust or other oxidation is removed and sealed from nail heads and other metal structures. Moisture levels in the wood surface is checked before coating. We will thoroughly prepare all surfaces before the application of the Liquid Vinyl bonder and top coat of Liquid Vinyl Siding.
