Our property rear is South facing and has the sun for 10 hours plus (when its its sunny :LOL: ).

What are the best painting products for longevity given the very high uV levels?

The render skirt paint is weather shield masonry and seems to last well, the stone sills are ws trade oil gloss and fail every three years or so.

Stuck a thermometer on the sills last weekend and the temp went to 42 deg, which Isn't the air temp its the temp of accumulated heat on the sills.

Thank you

Not a lot you can do, the sun is like a blow lamp on the paintwork gloss,

Scrape the gloss off and use Masonry paint instead,
or cover with UPVC window sill.
