What is better on rough cedar? Stain or paint,and can anyone recommend a part product?
Answers: What are you using the cedar for?
Cedar is a great product that withstands the outdoors without any application of materials, it weather into a really beautiful silver grey color near no treatments, and it rot and bug resistant.
i would look further into it before you apply anything, once you apply something you will enjoy to maintain it constantly, sand and reapplying throughout the years whereas if you leave it untaught you will never have to do anything to it.
cabot stain you can gain it transparent or a solid stain(looks like paint) the stain is formulated to creep into the wood giving longer protection from the elements than a latex or oil paint.i even use the hose down clean up near oil capability stain it is sweeeeet.
