Painted widows or just plain white?

13 years ago

thinking of getting Polaris Ultrawelds installed and was thinking of an exterior paint option (20 year warranty). is the paint worth getting or just something that could go wrong over the years? or will the plain white have the same chance of peeling as painted ones?

oh and what do y'all think of Polaris windows? good, bad

thanks!

Plain white is white vinyl and will never peel in non-Apocalyptic times.

If you want a specific color, go ahead with the painted option. Obviously it will cost you more money.

The UltraWeld is a pretty good window. It is built like a tank.
