I'm restoring old wood windows. I've seen Benjamin Moore Super Spec DTM paint recommended for exteriors.
Looking at the Benjamin Moore web site and found several Super Spec listings.
Is this the Super Spec DTM to use?

I have used the low lustre on wood floors with great success and the gloss as part of my homemade stain. I use the BM Aura matte finish for all my exterior work except when I am staining siding or a deck.
I pre-treat all the bare wood or freshly sanded wood with a 50/50 mix of Penetrol and mineral spirits. Some posted it here a few years back and love how the finishes hold up. No paint failures yet. I guess that's more of an answer than you asked for.
