    Not sure if that's a typo & you are asking about paint. Painting an external wall is a fairly simple process. Make sure any existing paint that is cracked or peeling is cleaned off. Clean the exterior and make sure it is completely dry. Then paint with a good exterior paint.

    If not, then please elaborate.

    Take a good photo to the paint department of your local home improvement store and ask for their opinion. They sell so many products and have the know-how so that they should be able to give you a gameplan for success.
