After too many years delay, we are going to paint the exterior of the house and replace the gutters. I was hoping for basic advice. Are any of the major paint brands better than the others? What level of gloss/matte do you recommend for an exterior paint job? Any opinions as to what colors look good with aged red brick? Also, for gutters, any difference in performance between 4" and 6" or is that just an aesthetic choice? Do the gutters that avoid the need for annual cleanout really work? Thanks!
