Interior vs Exterior Painting Explained for George Properties

By Painters George | Garden Route Painting Specialists

Many homeowners in George are unsure about the differences between interior and exterior painting. Painters George explains what you need to know.

Key Differences

• Weather resistance — exterior paints withstand George's UV, winter damp, rain and wind. Interior paints are not weather-resistant and must never be used outside
• VOCs and odour — exterior paints have higher VOC content. Interior paints are low-odour and safe in enclosed spaces
• Flexibility — exterior paints flex with temperature changes without cracking — critical in George's winter-wet climate
• Finish options — interior offers more decorative finishes; exterior prioritises durability
