Hello I'm new! :-)

Hello,

Found this forum and thought someone may be able to help.
I'm trying to get confirmation on the best paints to use on an outside mural?

I have painting only inside murals is far and have been asked to paint one outside.

I have had a little look on the net and a few comments have suggested acrylics?

I have little experience in outdoor paints and feeling a bit confused. I understand that the paints will have to be weather enduranced, can normal acrylics do the same job?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated .

Many thanks
Myshell
