I know that when a new house is build and lead flashing is used its best to treat it with a suitable oil to keep it looking natural.

My house is 15 years old and the builder painted the lead flashing with some kind of light grey paint.Over the years it has become stained and I would like to repaint it so does anyone have a recomendation to what paint I should use.

No the builder did not oil the lead flashing he painted it with a light grey paint.You see lots of houses that have the lead get stained over the years and people paint it.All I am after is what paint is best to paint the lead flashing.
