What We Actually Recommend
After 30+ years painting in Sarasota, Bradenton, and the Gulf Coast — these are the products Tom reaches for first, and why.
Unmatched hide in one coat, zero VOC, and the cleanability Florida families need. Upgrades every room to feel professionally finished.
The only products we trust to last a full cycle in Florida’s brutal UV and humidity — both include mildew inhibitors and elastomeric flexibility.
Cures to a rock-hard furniture-grade finish. What separates a professional cabinet paint job from a DIY one that chips in 6 months.
When budget matters, SuperPaint delivers professional-grade results at a fraction of Emerald’s cost. Excellent for whole-home repaints.
Self-cleaning tech washes salt deposits away with rainfall — a game-changer for Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island homes.
Recoatable in 4 hours even in high humidity — perfect for Florida’s summer painting season when a rain delay could ruin your job.
