can vinyl siding be painted with regular exterior paint?

Answer 1

Certainly, I did mine and it's perfect, looks like new siding.

Answer 2

You need to pressure wash the siding, then use a primer formulated for the task. Your home center should have an ample supply.
As a side note...Wouldn't this be a good time to consider replacing the vinyl? Hardi Plank siding holds paint much longer than wood, is impervious to fire, and has substantially more impact resistance than vinyl.

Answer 3

They have special paints for this. It's not cheap, but less than new siding. Call a paint store like Benjamin Moore and ask someone who can direct you. They probably dont' sell it there, but may have ideas of a company. Otherwise, just type in the keywords online and see what you find.
