Q: What is the difference between exterior solid acrylic stain and paint?
A: Not much in the look. In fact, if you were to ask 100 painters if they could tell the difference between solid acrylic stain or a coat of paint on a metal door I'd be willing to bet the honest ones would tell you "no."
There are differences in the properties that make up both products however, Solid acrylic stain generally is said not to require a primer prior to being applyed directly to wood. Acrylic paint ALWAYS requires a primer. Acrylic stain is gernerally thinner and paint is gernerally thicker (Although how thick a paint is in the can doesn't mean it is better always). It depends on the application and how often a person is planning of maintenancing what ever it is they are painting. For a custom bid and the CORRECT application call me.
