Paint Made For Florida vs. National Brand Paint
Most homeowners focus on what a gallon costs at the store and not how the paint is crafted. Paint material typically makes up only 15–25% of the total cost of a professional paint job. The other 75–85% is labor: prep work, priming, application, cleanup, and the hours a crew spends in your home.
That changes the math completely. If quality paint lasts 6–10 years and budget paint lasts 4–5, you're not just saving on materials — you're buying yourself an entire paint job you never have to pay for. At $1,500 to $4,000+ per exterior repaint, that's real money. Florida Paints products are weather-tested and expertly crafted for durability to give you the most value in every can of paint.

The real cost of cheap paint isn't on the price tag — it's in the labor you'll pay again and again.
