Cedar naturally weathers and grays - proper prep and the right coating decision (paint vs stain) dramatically affect longevity
Our proven process: replace split or missing shingles, treat any mildew with bleach solution, rinse thoroughly, apply oil-based penetrating primer on bare cedar, paint or stain with solid-color stain or 100% acrylic.
Solid-color deck and siding stain penetrates better than paint on rough cedar. Benjamin Moore Arborcoat or Cabot Australian Timber Oil for staining; Benjamin Moore Aura for painting.
