QUALITY PAINTING PRODUCTS PART 3------BINDERS
The type, quality and amount of binders affects everything from stain resistance and gloss to adhesion and crack resistance. Higher quality binders found in higher-quality paints, adhere to surfaces better and provide enhanced film integrity, making them more resistant to cracking, blistering and peeling.
There are a variety of binders used today. Latex paints contain either 100% acrylic, styrene-acrylic, or vinyl acrylic binders, while oil paints typically contain linseed oil, soya oil or modified oils called alkyds.
THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF PIGMENT THAT GO INTO A CAN OF PAINT: "Prime" pigments, which provide color and hide; and low-cost "Extender" pigments, which and bulk to the product, but have little value as it relates to color.
Higher-quality paints contain more of the all-important, yet more expensive, "Prime" pigments, which in the end give you easier application, better color retention, and stronger durability.
