Stop Waiting and Start Painting: OLYMPIC Paints and Stains by PPG Widens Window of Opportunity for Outdoor Summer Projects

With WEATHER-READY application, weather forecasts no longer
stand in way of paint or stain projects
Barbeques, gardening, dog-walking, beach vacations: all popular
summer activities ruined when precipitation is in the forecast. But
good news -- gone are the days of relying on the perfect day to
start an outdoor home project, because the OLYMPIC® Paints and
Stains brand by PPG has launched an updated formula for its popular
Olympic ONE exterior paint line. This new formula features
WEATHER-READY® application technology, reducing the
unpredictability of exterior home projects.
The new Olympic ONE exterior paint formula with Weather-Ready
application is rain-ready in 12 hours. This means the qualities of
this advanced formula will help protect your doors, shutters,
siding and more if it rains 12 hours after application, so
homeowners need not fear their completed project will be ruined.
The new formula also includes an ALL-CLIMATE PROTECTION PACKAGE™
feature that helps paint adhere should very low or high
temperatures occur, as low as 32 F and as high as 90 F.
“We want to give homeowners and do-it-yourselfers the
flexibility and confidence to paint, even if the weather isn’t
perfect,” said Alison Bruce, senior brand manager, Olympic Paints
and Stains by PPG. “It’s now more convenient than ever to conquer
your outdoor projects no matter the weather.”
In addition to Weather-Ready application and the All-Climate
Protection Package feature, Olympic ONE exterior
paint-and-primer-in-one offers resistance to cracking, peeling and
fading and a mildew-resistant coating. The paint’s low-VOC
(volatile organic compound), low-odor formula is ideal for wood,
masonry and more. A high-quality and affordable
paint-and-primer-in-one product, Olympic ONE exterior paint is
engineered for performance and durability, guaranteed.
“Innovative Weather-Ready application launched last summer as a
feature of the Olympic MAXIMUM® stain product. And now, we are
thrilled to be able to extend this offering to the Olympic ONE
exterior paint line,” Bruce said.
Bruce offered the following tips to help you stop waiting and
start painting and staining this summer, even if the weather isn’t
perfect:
- With true, rich color and
fade-resistance features, try Olympic ONE exterior paint on your
front door, shutters or window trim in the 2018 color of the year,
Black Magic (OL116). This color is a classic that neighbors and
guests won’t soon forget.
- Pair your favorite exterior paint color
with coordinating Olympic stain colors. It’s now easier than ever
to pick the best stain color for your project, with large wooden
samples available in the stain aisle at LOWE’S® store
locations.
- Pick a weekend and gather your friends
and family to get into project mode. Assign a friend or two to
touch up your deck, fence or pergola with Olympic Maximum stain,
while you give your front door a fresh coat of paint.
