Looking for advice on what good quality paint to do the soffits and facia boards on our new build house. They will be a dark grey colour ral code to match the windows.
Any recommendations or advice.
Thanks in advance

We used Zinsser Allcoat Exterior for some windows and fascias earlier this year - very impressive.
Dries quickly to allow two quick coats and was a perfect match for our RAL7016 aluminium doors.

Second vote for the zinsser, perfect for what you're doing. If you want buy British then Bedec msp is very similar and also comes in Ral.

Another shout for Zinsser Allcoat. Get the waterbased as it's much easier to apply.

Just to be different I've always had really good long lasting results with sadolin superdec. It's a 1 part water based opaque protective woodstain available in lots of colours (not sure if you can get it mixed to a sepcific ral though). Goes on really nice, 3 coats on bare wood, 2 on lightly sanded previously painted surfaces.
