Despite the fact that there are many different types of house paint, most fall into one of two categories: oil and water. Oil-based house paint is referred to as alkyd, while the water-based type is commonly called latex or acrylic. The main differences between the two are their drying processes, their finishes, and the ease or difficulty of clean up.

Oil-based paint takes longer to dry than the water-based variety, but it contains additives to help speed up the drying process. Oil paints also create a harder, glossier finish, and require special chemicals for clean up. Water based paints, on the other hand, dry quickly as moisture evaporates. Their finish is not as shiny or as durable, but the ease of clean up makes them a popular choice. They can be cleaned up with warm water and a bit of mild detergent.

STONE WALL COVERING The purpose of a natural stone veneer is to provide a

given structure with the appearance of an actual stone masonry work; that is, the structures are made to look like real stone walls. Since actual stone masonry can be quite expensive, given the sourcing of the natural stones from distant quarries and the dressing needed to prepare them for construction, natural stone veneers are the next best and comparatively more affordable alternative.
