First, try checking the parts counter at the dealership for your brand of car....you never know, they might still have the OEM stuff in stock. Try saving what you have....clean it w/a scouring pad (like those used for non-stick cookware) & soap, then paint with spar varnish. Get the decals from a newer wagon, like the '91-96 Buick Roadmaster. You'll have to cut it to fit, but any dealer should have it.

Absolutely. The correct technical name for the material used in vinyl siding is polyvinyl chloride. It's a strong, durable, proven material that has earned a solid reputation for its beauty and permanence. It's used in automotive applications, medical devices, defense weapons, appliances, floor coverings, and of course, home construction. It's ideal as an exterior material because vinyl siding doesn't rot, crack, dent or warp. Plus it never peels or blisters. See similar questions...

Ordinarily, the cleaning action of a rainfall will be adequate to wash your vinyl siding. However, vinyl siding and soffit should be washed periodically by hosing with a garden hose and clear water, particularly in those areas not exposed directly to rain. If you desire to do a more thorough cleaning, or where high soil collection conditions occur, use a soft-bristled, long-handled washing brush. It attaches to your garden hose and makes washing your siding easier. Do not rub vigorously. See similar questions...

That will probably seal them in. It may solve your problem, but will give a pebbly appearance to your paint job. Each repainting will seal in the artillery fungus even more. There are no fungicides legally registered (by EPA) against the artillery fungus. Bleach, if it worked, would be very temporary, as it leaches out with each rain. We tested 14 different fungicides in the laboratory, but have to take the experiment to the field. See similar questions...

Most people refer to this siding as fake wood or composite wood. The siding is man-made, utilizing various combinations of wood chips and glue, manufactured to resemble real wood. Some wood chips are large while some are very fine grained, overlaid with very thin laminate to give a "real wood" look on the surface. These products come in lap and panel siding. Lap siding runs horizontally, and each board laps over the other. Panel siding is a 4x8 or 4x9 sheet of paneling. See similar questions...

Wood windows are the soundest option. They are structurally strong, weather well against the elements (many houses still have their original windows, which are averaging 70 years old), and they allow flexibility with exterior and interior color schemes. If a homeowner decides to install vinyl windows, the visual impact on the house can be great. The color selections are limited and the frames of the windows are wider, as vinyl is not as strong as wood. See similar questions...

Yes, many of our customers use our wooden products on vinyl-sided houses. For most items we recommend 'round-head' (also called 'pan-head') brass screws, with screw heads left exposed.

Vinyl siding or new aluminum may be painted with a 100% acrylic finish without priming, as long as the surface is clean and dry. Weathered aluminum needs to be cleaned and then primed with an oil based primer before applying the acrylic topcoat. When painting vinyl siding, be sure that the color chosen is a shade no darker than the original color because dark colors absorb heat from the sun and may cause warping or buckling.

In the case of aluminum or vinyl sidings use the IPexterior plugs as usual, installed in a 1" drilled hole. You can install the plug without making an unsightly indentation or installation mark in the siding by using a 1 3/8" hole saw on the siding only, which will allow the plug to be drawn up flush with the siding and prevent any buckling when the cap is installed. If there are signs of the siding buckling, back off on the plug so that the cap fits snugly against the siding. See similar questions...

Several factors contribute to the failure of composite wood siding: the performace of the product itself, the quality of its installation, and/or the design of the sturcture. Composite siding does not handle water very well. Water droplets collect on the bottom edge of the siding after a rain shower or morning dew. The wood fibers expand and contract causing the boards to crack, buckle, peel and delaminate. As the paint cracks it allows more moisture and damage to occur. See similar questions...
