Oil paints shrink less upon drying than latex paints and thus do not have as great a tendency to pull the old paint loose.

These paints are typically oil-based or latex, and should be scrubbed only with a mild detergent and then rinsed with a hose.
Oil colors are much, much creamier and softer than his firm landscape paints; the floral brushes are much smaller and more precise.

Oil-based paints are not recommended for many concrete surfaces, especially those in contact with round moisture, such as basements and patios, because they will not adhere to damp surfaces.

Oil-based paints, latexes, lacquers and epoxies have very different cure mechanisms but all can be affected strongly by the surface they are put upon and the environment in which they are applied.
Oil paints, unfortunately, chemically react with zinc oxide and consequently only a little can be allowed in a given formula; often a less than effective dose.
