| Less shrinkage | Turns brittle with age |
| Can handle lower temperatures | Slower dry than latex |
| More durable in high traffic areas | Colors fade faster |
| Seals stains better | Chalks faster than latex |
| Holds better on steel | Peels on galvanized metal |
| Better adhesion on dirty surfaces | Yellows with age |
