I have an old cottage that is painted white and has bright red paint around the windows and doors. Previously I painted with a white masonry paint and used red gloss as it was the only thing I could find the right colour. However the house is right on a beach and the red gloss flakes off really quickly. I was wondering if there is a better paint to use for this rather than gloss? I considered just making it all white but the colour gives the cottage lots of character so I would rather keep it if possible but not if it means re-painting every year ! Thanks if anyone can help.
