Human: I'm looking to paint the wooden fencing in my backyard. Wintertime is coming soon and I'm wondering if I can buy just any old paint, or need a special type of paint for outdoor wood.

Assistant: I think that's right -- you'll need to buy outdoor paint for the wood, because you'll be painting on an outside surface and in a harsh climate.  I can help you order the right paint for you, if you like.

Assistant: The type of paint for outdoors will be different from the type for indoor use. The most common paint for outdoor use is oil-based (i.e., "house paint" or "flat paint"). In the US, the paint should have a "weather-resistant"
