From Faded Yellow to Bold Black: Vinyl Siding Transformation in Connecticut

Another Connecticut Painters United Exterior Success Story

At Connecticut Painters United, we specialize in turning tired exteriors into eye-catching homes that stand out — and this recent project was no exception. Our team completed a dramatic color transformation of a vinyl-sided home in Connecticut, going from a weathered yellow to a bold and modern black finish.

🎨 The Challenge: Repainting Vinyl Siding the Right Way

Painting vinyl siding comes with its own set of rules — especially when changing to a darker color. Many paints can cause warping or adhesion failure if the wrong product or shade is used. That’s why we chose Sherwin-Williams Latitude® paint, a top-tier exterior formula specifically designed for vinyl siding. Latitude is engineered to withstand high temperatures and offers exceptional adhesion, flexibility, and UV protection — making it ideal for this bold black makeover.

✅ Our Process:

• Thorough Cleaning & Surface Prep: We started with a soft wash to remove dirt, mildew, and chalking — ensuring a clean base for proper bonding.

• Masking & Protection: Windows, trim, fixtures, and landscaping were carefully masked and protected to keep the job sharp and clean.

• Spray Application: For a smooth, professional finish, our crew sprayed on two coats of Sherwin-Williams Latitude in a vinyl-safe black, ensuring a deep, even tone without the risk of heat-related distortion.

• Final Inspection: We walked the homeowner through a full inspection, ensuring satisfaction and long-term durability.

🌞 Why Sherwin-Williams Latitude®?

This paint isn’t just another can on the shelf — it’s a specially formulated coating built to handle extreme weather conditions and fluctuating temperatures typical of New England. It dries fast, resists fading, and can be applied in temperatures as low as 35°F and as high as 100°F — perfect for our unpredictable climate.

🖤 The Result:

The transformation was nothing short of stunning. The sleek black finish gave the home a refreshed, modern look that turns heads from the street. It’s now protected from the elements with a finish that will last for years — and the homeowner couldn’t be happier.
