What is the main advantage of latex (water-based) paint over traditional oil-based (alkyd) paint?
a.It always lasts longer on every surface
b.It never needs a primer
c.Faster drying, easier water cleanup, lower odor, and lower VOC content
d.It cannot be tinted to color
Explicación
Latex paints dry quickly, clean up with water, have lower odor, and generally lower VOCs than solvent-based alkyds. They also stay flexible and resist yellowing, making them common for most interior and exterior work. Oil-based paints still offer benefits such as leveling and stain-blocking in certain applications.
