Architectural coatings

Architectural coatings[1][2] or paints[3] are paints and other coatings used to paint the exteriors and interiors of buildings.[2] Clear varnishes and lacquers are generally excluded.[1] Such products are usually designated for specific purposes such as roof coatings, wall paints, or deck finishes.[2] The coatings are typically applied with brushes, rollers or sprayers.[4] These coatings are intended for on-site application and do not include "factory-applied coatings for building products such as vinyl siding or aluminum window frames [that] may ultimately be used for architectural end-uses".[2]
