Reddish-brown stains on the paint surface.
Possible Cause
Solution
When painting new exterior construction where non-galvanised nails have been used, it is advisable to first countersink the nail heads, then caulk them with a top quality, water-based all acrylic caulk. Each nail head area should be spot primed, then painted with a quality latex coating. When repainting exteriors where nail head rusting has occurred, wash off rust stains, sand the nail heads, then follow the same surface preparation procedures as for new construction.
