Concerns:
Most gutter contractors only stock gutter parts for a two sided coil they buy: Gloss White / Satin Musket Brown. This is so they only have to stock these 2 colors in the downspouts parts and just flip the pre-painted gutter coil around for the color side of choice to be one the outside of the gutter as the gutter shape is formed running through their gutter machine.

(a) They will either not offer other colors, or they will compel you to go with their slim selection by charging you a lot more for the alternative colors. This is to save them the trouble of making a special trip to their supplier to get the right color for you.

(b) For some strange reason most gutter contractors get the high gloss white. It is the only color that is made in high gloss. The other colors are all a satin paint. More like most all house or trim paint.

(c) Many Homeowners have been well trained to choose white, claiming it is a good match for any house trim color you may have, but light colors will show the build-up of mildew more readily than the darker colors.

(d) They can be painted over, but it would require a lot of added labor and cost to paint the new gutters the color you want. More importantly the paint used on aluminum sheet metal is a baked-on enamel finish. Similar to auto paint, which is clearly better than anything you could put on them; like a thick house paint. For touch-up it is recommended to use a light bodied spray paint, as opposed to a thick and lumpy house paint. Years latter it is not going to leave such a thick peal, which is more trouble and costly to scrape down smooth than it is to replace the gutters entirely.
