That's the way to look at painting—as an investment, not
an expense. Look around you at the houses going to rack
and ruin. What is doing it? The weather. There is only
one defense against weather and that is paint. But paint,
like weather, is of many kircic. Beware of the fair weather
paint. It does not piotecc, it only deceives. Buy a paint
that has proved its staying power.
