latex or oil?

Mud wattle or adobe with straw needs no paint.

I operate a small property maintenance business and have done quite a bit of painting. i lean heavily on latex paints. I use a lot of Sherwin Williams Super Paint with good results.
SW also makes a paint called Duration. Super is @35 a gal and Duration @ 45.00 a gal.

Prep is key to any good paint job. Remove all loose/ flaking paint and prime with SW A100 oil primer if your state allows oil paints. To get lasting results you should apply 2 coats of your topcoat.
The Duration product claims it needs no priming and only one coat.
Sherwin Williams is very good about advising you in your job. They should be able to help you.

I think I've narrowed it down to BM moorglo, SW superpaint, or Valspar duramax. Any thoughts?

Oil based paints release volatile organic compounds and are "sin" against the environment.

My husband liked Valspar Duramax for all of our trim.

The "illegals" that painted our house used Sherwin Willliams 4 weeks ago.
